Description
A metal detecting survey and a subsequent archaeological trial trench evaluation were undertaken in advance of a residential development consisting of luxury lodges. The metal detecting survey consisted of the systematic detection across the site within a predefined 'grid' system. Priority was given to areas which were within areas earmarked for development such as building footprints/ access routes with these areas afforded more intensive/focused metal detecting. A total of 20 50m trenches and one x 20m trench were opened, totalling of 1020m of trenching.
