Description

An archaeological watching brief was carried out on a proposal to install a Tree House and Climbing Forest at High Lodge. The topsoil was stripped above each of the 12 proposed postholes, each generally a c.0.8m by c.0.8m test pit. The topsoil and subsoil was heavily disturbed by tree rooting, however a clean surface of unmodified natural subsoil was observed in each test pit and checked for features prior to continuing. No finds or features of archaeological interest were identified (S1).
