Johnson House, Over Burrow, Lancashire. Archaeological Evaluation Report

An archaeological evaluation has been undertaken by the Lancaster University
Archaeological Unit on behalf of Mrs Whitaker at Johnson House, Over Burrow,
Lancashire (SD 6808 7608). It comprised the excavation of four trial trenches on the
site of a proposed silage tank and agricultural building. The site lay within the area of
the Scheduled Ancient Monument of the Over Burrow Roman fort, and therefore
Class consent was granted to the client by English Heritage in order for the evaluation
to be undertaken. The work programme was devised to determine the archaeological
potential of the area directly affected by the proposed development, and this work was
agreed with and monitored by the Lancashire County Archaeology Service.
