Description

Four trial trenches were excavated to assess the preservation of the Fiskerton causeway monument, and the impact of land management changes over the previous 25 years on the remains. The study concluded that, although previous ploughing regimes have caused an appreciable loss of stratigraphy and destruction to the monument, the lower deposits survived in good condition. {1}{2}
