Full Description
Archaeological monitoring was undertaken during construction of a new link road. Amongst the fourteen linear features and ditches encountered were two ditches thought to be associated with the cropmark trackway TYN 066. No dating evidence was recovered (S1).
Monitoring was undertaken during the excavation of nineteen 3 x 3 m trenches along the route of the proposed A14 link road. No archaeological features or finds were encountered (S2).
An AP assessment was undertaken for a 200m strip alongside the A14 to accurately map archaeological and natural features in advance of proposals to improve the road. A number of features were located and mapped including SNH 001, SNH 005, TYN 012, TYN 029, TYN 54, TYN 065, TYN 066, TYN 067, TYN 105 (S3).
