February-June 2022. Trial Trenching.
Evaluation of site on proposed route of Hornsea Project Three offshore wind farm onshore cable (P2TT92; Trenches 763-769).
The seven trenches excavated at this location revealed only three discrete features and a single ditch. The former comprised two adjacent undated pits and a probable natural feature. The ditch was an east-north-east to west-south-west aligned feature that appears to have corresponded with a former field boundary depicted on the Hethersett tithe map (S2).
Information from draft report. Final version awaited.
