Gaunt, A., 'Hangar Hill/'Thynghowe', Budby/Edwinstowe/Warsop' in King, C. (editor), 'Archaeology in Nottinghamshire 2017', Transactions of the Thoroton Society of Nottinghamshire : The Journal for Nottinghamshire History and Archaeology, 121, 2017, 27-30.
(NOTES: Illustrations, plans. Bibliographical references. Mercian Archaeological Services CIC undertook further geophysical survey at this possible Viking Assembly Site. The survey focused upon the mound of Thynghowe and an adjacent area preserving traces of a circular embanked ditched enclosure of uncertain date and function. The area inside the enclosure emerged as a very low resistance area, contrasting in this respect with a dense grouping of higher resistance anomalies to its north-east. This suggests a more extensive area of archaeological features than has hitherto been recorded. | PLACE: Warsop | SUBJECT: Historic environment > Monuments > Civil > Moot | ONLINE: - | ISBN/ISSN: | PUBLICATION TYPE: Contribution to article in serial | ID NUMBER: 12707)

(NOTES: Trial trenching was undertaken by Trent & Peak Archaeology at the northern edge of the grounds of Lenton Priory.

(NOTES: Illustrations, plans. Excavations by Oxford Archaeology North revealed extensive evidence for Neolithic and Bronze Age activity, including a ring ditch and a large circular ditched enclosure interpreted as possibly a Neolithic hengiform monument reused during the Bronze Age as a funerary focus. Within its interior were a cluster of pits containing urned and unurned Early to Middle Bronze Age cremations. More cremations were found outside the enclosure and yielded a variety of grave goods. The next major phase of activity was represented by an Iron Age ditched field system and at least two foci of Iron Age settlement; the latter preserved roundhouses, pits and other features, together with a rich collection of Iron Age pottery, metal working residues and other finds. A large Romano-British ditched enclosure was superimposed upon part of the Iron Age field system. This appears to have formed a focus for occupation and industrial activity, with metalworking residues in several internal features and the remains of six exceptionally well-preserved pottery kilns relating to Roman or possibly early post-Roman activity. | PLACE: Newark; Balderton | SUBJECT: History and archaeology > Prehistoric; Iron Age-Romano-British | ONLINE: - | ISBN/ISSN: | PUBLICATION TYPE: Contribution to article in serial | ID NUMBER: 12712)

(NOTES: Illustration. A third season of excavations by Trent & Peak Archaeology uncovered a dense arrangement of intercutting linear features, interpreted as bedding trenches associated with the Ducal Palace gardens, beneath deposits relating to Victorian allotments or town gardens. An area of hard standing, probably for WW2 searchlights, was also revealed. | PLACE: Nottingham | SUBJECT: Historic environment > Architecture and building > Secular > Castles and Fortifications > Nottingham Castle | ONLINE: - | ISBN/ISSN: | PUBLICATION TYPE: Contribution to article in serial | ID NUMBER: 12713)

(NOTES: Illustration. Three trenches, positioned at right angles to the gatehouse bridge, were dug by Trent & Peak Archaeology prior to consolidation works associated with the Nottingham Castle Transformation project.

(NOTES: Illustrations. Bibliographical references.

(NOTES: Trent & Peak Archaeology undertook a watching brief during excavation of a narrow trench near the north wall of the Chapter House.

(NOTES: Illustrations, plan. Bibliographical reference. Trent & Peak Archaeology was commissioned by Natural England to conduct a topographical and geophysical survey of an earthwork complex in Fox Wood to inform selective thinning of woodland. This was followed by trial trenching to investigate further the character of the earthworks. On typological grounds, these invite comparison with Iron Age and Romano-British enclosures in the region, and it has been suggested that they might indicate the insertion of a later squarish enclosure into a larger curvilinear enclosure. The date of the outer enclosure remains uncertain at present. The innermost ditch, by contrast, yielded pottery dating from the late Iron Age into the Roman period, with the upper fills containing pottery of mid-2nd to early 3rd century AD date. Given the quantities of animal bone that were also recovered and the discovery inside the enclosure of a curvilinear ditch and gully yielding 1st | PLACE: Woodborough | SUBJECT: History and archaeology > Iron Age-Romano-British; Historic environment > Monuments > Defence > Hillforts > Iron Age hillforts | ONLINE: - | ISBN/ISSN: | PUBLICATION TYPE: Contribution to article in serial | ID NUMBER: 12720)
