Abstract:		 A watching brief was carried out during topsoil stripping and the excavation of foundation trenches for a residential development at a site which lay within an area of potential archaeological importance, as noted in the Southampton Local Plan. In the surrounding area, evidence of activity at different periods had been recorded, including a Neolithic flint tool, a Roman coin and medieval remains. During the watching brief, a number of features were observed, including two linear features running north-south and at least three running east-west, a very large pit containing burnt demolition material, and several smaller pits. These features all appeared to have been infilled in the late medieval to post-medieval period. Finds, including pottery dating mainly from the medieval period, were recovered from the majority of the features. An undated wall built party of re-used stone was observed in situ. No evidence of direct occupation of the site was revealed, suggesting that it had been used for agriculture. [Au(adp)]
