Archaeological Evaluation (10 September 2012 - 18 September 2012)
NJ 8610 0663 An evaluation was undertaken, 10–18 September 2012, prior to development of a greenfield site at Kingswells. An evaluation of Phase 1 had been undertaken in 2011 and this year’s work covered Phases 2 and 3 of the development. A bund area, haul road and site compound had been stripped to the natural prior to the attendance of an archaeologist and the evaluation worked around these areas. A total of 88 trenches, representing 10% (11296m2) of the site were excavated. No finds or features of archaeological significance were recorded.
