Abstract:
Wessex Archaeology was commissioned by RWP Construction and Property Consultants on behalf of Prego Developments Limited c/o Eagle One Limited to undertake a programme of archaeological evaluation on land south of Yeoford Way on the Marsh Barton Trading Estate, Exeter, centred on NGR 293199, 089389, prior to development. The evaluation comprised the mechanical excavation of four trial trenches and four test pits distributed across the site, and the excavation of twelve boreholes comprising two transects of six boreholes each. The trial trenches were targeted on anomalies identified through geophysical survey, whilst the test pits were located to investigate areas of potential organic remains identified in a previous geotechnical investigation. The borehole transects were located to investigate the locations of potential palaeochannels, the results of which are presented in a separate report. There is little evidence of human occupation and activity on the Site, with the majority of the anomalies identified through geophysical survey most likely to be the result of alluvial processes during multiple flood events. A single pit was recorded in Trench 3 in the north-east corner of the site. The dating of a single radiocarbon sample indicated a Late Neolithic to Early Bronze Age date, although no artefactual data was recovered to confirm this. The results of the evaluation strongly suggest a low potential for features and/or deposits of archaeological interest to be impacted by development at the Site. The works were carried out between the 27th and the 29th of June 2011.
