Watching Brief

An archaeological watching brief at the main water treatment works development site was carried out. The development site sloped downhill from an existing track in a westerly direction with the prehistoric hut circle located within the centre of the ground works. A dense spread of stone was noted to the SW of the hut circle, but it did not display any structural shape or form. It was located close to a post-medieval or modern track-way and may well have been associated with this. There were no other features or finds found during the watching brief, which was a surprise considering the close proximity of the soil strip to the perimeter to the hut circle.
