Abstract:
Archaeology South-East was commissioned by Hampshire County Council to undertake an archaeological watching brief during the construction of a new extension at Kings Worthy Primary School, near Winchester, Hampshire. The fieldwork was undertaken between 30th June and 23rd August 2007 on the recommendation of Stephen Appleby, Senior Archaeologist at Hampshire County Council (HCC). Archaeological features dating from the Iron Age up to the Medieval period were revealed during these investigations. The Iron Age features included a large ditch, beehive-shaped pit containing the remains of three foetal or neonate dogs, a large, probably circular, post-built structure and several other postholes and pits. The post-built structure appears to have been much larger than similarly constructed roundhouses of this period and could have served a communal purpose. A Medieval track-way also ran across the site and a rectilinear enclosure and infant grave could not be assigned to a specific time period. The Iron Age features appear to be contemporary with other similar features found during previous archaeological investigations nearby, suggesting that the Iron Age occupation encompasses a much larger area than has currently been investigated. The Medieval track-way also seems to continue beyond the area excavated in both directions, with similar tracks having been recorded during investigations both to the south-west and to the north-east of the site.
