Abstract: |
Wessex Archaeology (WA) was commissioned by Aster Homes (the Client), to undertake an archaeological evaluation in advance of development on land at Roman Way School, Andover, Hampshire, centred on NGR 436650, 147800. This report outlines the results of the archaeological evaluation. A geophysical survey had previously been undertaken within the site and identified a number of anomalies of possible archaeological interest. Following recommendations by the County Archaeologist at Hampshire County Council, an archaeological evaluation was carried out to assess the archaeological potential. Four evaluation trenches were positioned over possible and probable archaeology and blank areas to assess the archaeological potential of the site. No archaeological features were recorded during the course of the evaluation and the geophysical anomalies were proven to be the result of variations in the underlying natural geology or natural features. The results of the evaluation suggest that the potential for archaeological remains to be present on the site is low. The fieldwork was conducted between the 31st of October and the 1st of November 2012. |
