Description
Ellough, Waste Transfer Station, Benacre Road (ELO 015, TM 4410 8842) evaluation trenching for a planned large steel portal frame building on the southern side of an existing waste station confirmed local information that the central and western parts of the application area had been used as an extensive clay quarry pit in the post World War II period. The eastern third of the area examined was outside this former quarry pit though all traces of the original top and subsoil had been removed prior to the laying of a hard core yard type surface, no archaeological features or finds were revealed.
