SiteComments: 

A low density of Middle Stone Age (MSA) artefacts were identified on a scraped portion of the former borrow pit wall. Artefact quantities were however too low to attempt an artefact ratio (artefacts: mÑ). The few artefacts collected were all made from quartz-like material. It can reasonably be expected that similar low quantities of artefacts will be present in undisturbed areas: Development may thus well impact on a particularly low density MSA occurrence. The MSA occurrence is ascribed a SAHRA Low Significance and a Generally Protected C Field Rating. It is recommended that development proceeds without the developer having to apply for a SAHRA Site Destruction Permit.
