Abstract:
Albion Archaeology were commissioned through CgMs Consulting by Oaklands College to undertake an archaeological evaluation in advance of the redevelopment of the Smallford Campus with a new educational facility. The current investigations revealed only one feature that was not proven to be modern. It produced no finds but contained similar fills to previously recorded ditches and post-holes located nearby. However, given the general lack of dating evidence from the current and earlier evaluation, the date and therefore significance of the ditch is far from certain. The trial trenching demonstrated that the areas investigated have not been significantly truncated by modern activity. Therefore, the absence of archaeological evidence in all but Trench 15, does suggest a genuine lack of significant archaeological remains in the particular areas evaluated during this project.
