Wessex Archaeology was commissioned by Kier Construction to undertake an archaeological trial trench evaluation on land at the Cedar School, Redbridge Lane, Nursling, Southampton prior to the phased redevelopment of the existing Cedar School with a replacement school building, associated access, parking and landscaping.
Five trial trenches measuring c.10m by 1.6m were excavated within the footprint of the proposed new school building. A very shallow gully was recorded in Trenches 4 and 5, but it remains undated and no archaeological finds were recovered during the work. No further archaeological features and/or deposits were present within the remaining trenches. The evaluation established that there is a low potential for the presence of archaeological features being present at the site.
The fieldwork was carried out between 23rd and 24th September 2013.
