Description

Archaeological trial trenching was undertaken to assess the significance of two areas within the scheduled ancient monument at Spilsby, with a view to de-scheduling. Two trenches in the southern field identified ridge and furrow, a hollow way and an associated boundary ditch. A trench placed further to the north showed evidence of landscaping associated with the construction of an earth mound for a now disused rifle range. {1} {2}
