SiteComments: 

This site has been extensively damaged by current roadworks for the GSLWP. According to the Regional Engineer the area was mistakenly marked as a loading area and subsequently the topsoil was removed. The removal of several centimetres of topsoil was sufficient to remove a shell midden, probably the remains of a settlement, and disturb an Early and Late Stone Age deposit. The archaeological material observed scattered in the area included several pottery sherds, P. perna fragments, whelk, an Early Stone Age hand-axe, and a Late Stone Age stone tool (specifically an adze). The accidental damage to this site highlights the need for consultation with all contractors/consultants before any construction activity
