Description
An archaeological desk-based assessment has been produced by University of Leicester Archaeological Services (ULAS) for land at Central College, Greythorn Drive, West Bridgford, Nottinghamshire
The assessment was commissioned by Bellway Homes (East Midlands) in advance of the proposed construction of residential housing on the site. At the time of the report the site was occupied by the Central College buildings and associated car parking and sports fields.
The report highlights a bronze age find spot (Acton Park copper alloy palstave),and Neolitic hand axe which were found within the study area, and Roman and Medieval pottery has been found on a site near Clifton Bridge.
