Abstract: |
The archaeological evaluation was undertaken prior to the development of the Amesbury Business Park. Elevan trial trenches were excavated in two areas, 1a and 1b. Two truncated negative lynchets and two possible scoops were identified in Area 1a, these features contained Romano-British pottery as well as a small quantity of worked flint. Area 1b contained a number of small, undated linear gullies and a parallel ditch, which may have been the remnants of a field system. Trench 7 displayed evidence of a isolated recut ditch with the upper fill yielding Early Bronze Age pottery and flint working debris, possibly indicating in-situ knapping activity.[Au(abr)] |
