Abstract/Summary

This report results from work undertaken by Archaeology Wales Ltd at the request of Wind Prospect Group Ltd (on behalf of BL Wind Ltd). It draws upon the results of an archaeological watching brief carried out during a soil strip for foundations, working areas and access roads for wind turbines at Burton Wold Farm. The results of the archaeological work significantly identified three linear features [116] [120] [122] and a small pit [118] at the site of Turbine 2. Ditch [120], which cuts Ditch [122], potentially represents a later phase of activity. These features are probably post-Roman. There is a high potential that this site extends a further 10m or more to the north and north-west of the area exposed during the soil strip. Three shallow ditches [110] [112] [114] were also identified along the access road near Turbine 8. These features appear to be contemporary and are possibly post-medieval or modern drainage channels.
