Abstract:
"An archaeological excavation was undertaken at Amen Corner, Bracknell, Berkshire (NGR SU 84103 69195). It was undertaken on behalf of CgMs Consulting, whose client had secured planning permission for a mixed use development on a site which comprised a number of fields on the western edge of Bracknell.The excavation revealed a near-complete banjo enclosure, with associated internal features, dating to around the 4th century BC.  These included a single round house defined by postholes and a ring gully.  Furthermore, two hearths were excavated, and a four-post structure was identified.  The remainder of internal features consisted of postholes and rubbish pits.  There was also evidence for iron working on the site, with quantities of slag found throughout the enclosure ditch and within a number of pits.  Evidence for earlier activity was identified, with a possible segmented ditch predating the banjo enclosure with the later ditches maintaining this original entrance."
