Abstract

Wessex Archaeology undertook an archaeological watching brief during the excavation of eight trial holes. The works were carried out to assess ground conditions in advance of the renewal of a water main that runs through Chilwell, Nottinghamshire. The monitored works were centred on NGR 450487 335713 and 451540 335530, at Chilwell, Nottinghamshire, NG9 5NP.

The watching brief found no archaeological features, deposits or structures in any of the trial holes. A small quantity of modern artefacts were found in two of the trial holes; these were recorded on site but not retained. The natural geological substrate was only exposed in two of the trial holes (107 and 114), at 0.45–0.68 m below ground level. It is possible, therefore that archaeological remains are present at the location of the other trial holes, at depths below those reached during the watching brief.
