Not everyday that you identify a hitherto unrecognised class of archaeological site. I present to you, the workings from which materials to build #river #embankments were extracted. Shallow, sub-rectangular cuttings. Three examples I identified today at #Fiskerton #Rolleston and #Staythorpe on the #RiverTrent #Notinghamshire. Interesting, one working per #parish, suggesting #local #community involvement. Ground #photographs with #LiDAR plots. #Archaeology #PostMedieval
