Description

{1} A programme of observation was carried out where the development required ground reduction. This was primarily within the footprint of the new Battery Storage Facility and comprised the excavation of 90 foundation pits for concrete bases, measuring 1m x 1m square and c1m deep. After 50 pits had been excavated, all with negative results, it was determined that archaeological supervision was no longer required. No archaeological finds or features were identified.
