Description

A program of fieldwalking and aerial photographic assessment was undertaken in advance to the construction of the Great Cornard reinforcement water main. The fieldwalking followed the route of the pipeline, in a 100m wide corridor. Around 15% of the route was occupied by pasture, orchards or sugar beet and could not be fieldwalked. Some of the areas that were walked had limited visibility due to crops above 10cm in height. The aerial photo assessment did not reveal any archaeological sites or features along the pipeline corridor (S1).
