Description

The site is located approximately 1.6km north west of Burton Joyce, Nottinghamshire at approximately 85m OD. There were 3 areas of excavation. A trench for the construction of the building extension and a service cut were excavated and recorded 20-29th August 2018 and ground clearance of an additional area north of the outbuildings was monitored on the 15th August 2019. This area contained a horseshoe-shaped earthwork which had the potential to be of Iron Age date. No archaeological features, finds or deposits were observed following continuous archaeological monitoring of excavations at Lodge Farm. Further monitoring of the removal of the historical horseshoe-shaped mound also revealed no archaeological features or deposits. No further information has been cleaned with regards to the regional resource of hillforts in the Late Bronze Age and Iron Age and nothing more can be stated with regards to the landscape context of this site during the Roman Period.
