| Title | Excavations along the Caythorpe gas pipeline North Humberside |
| Date | 1996 |
| Abstract | The Caythorpe gas pipeline corrider ran for 4.5km across an area of the Yorkshire Wolds recognised for its arachaeological importance. The excavation of the corridor provided an opportunity to place excavated features into the wider context of landscape development. Early prehistoric features recorded within the corridor included pit groups of Neolithic and Bronze age date, many with significant pottery asssemblages and two hitherto unrecorded round barrows. Five linear pit alignment and ditch boundaries were also investigated. On the lower ground of the Gypsey Race valley three hitherto unknown sites: an Iron Age square barrow cemetery, a Romano-British settlement and an Anglian settlement were excavated and recorded. |
