Abstract:		 A desk-based assessment and trial trenching evaluation were carried out on the site of a proposed new office building at the headquarters of Thames Valley Police, Wendover Road, Walton, Aylesbury. The site lies in an area of archaeological significance with extensive settlement remains of Bronze Age through to Anglo-Saxon date located nearby. In the immediate vicinity, evidence for late Iron Age and Romano-British agricultural activity has been found. The results of the desk-based assessment suggested that there was a high probability that the site would contain locally significant archaeological remains and that any remains within the area were likely to be well preserved. Archaeological features were found during the trial trenching. However, they could not be accurately dated and therefore their significance remains uncertain. The trenching also found evidence to suggest that the preservation of any archaeological remains at the site may have been affected by activities associated with past cultivation and the more recent construction of the police station.
