Abstract:
Wessex Archaeology was commissioned by Croudace Strategic to carry out a programme of archaeological evaluation at Razor's Farm, Chineham, Hampshire. It is proposed that a planning application will be submitted to the local planning authority for mixed-use development of the Site. In order to further inform the planning process as to the nature and condition of a number of archaeological features identified through geophysical survey, it was agreed with the Principal Archaeologist at Hampshire County Council, that further archaeological works at the Site would be undertaken. A total of 10 machine excavated trial trenches were excavated within the Site, each measuring 30m x 1.80m. The majority were positioned in the south-east of the Site, corresponding with cropmark evidence and geophysical survey results. In addition a hand-dug test-pit measuring approximately 1.5m square was excavated through the potential moat to the north of the farmhouse. Small quantities of Late Bronze Age or Early Iron Age pottery were recovered from a single ditch in the southern part of the Site suggest a background of prehistoric activity in the area. The majority of the features, finds, and the environmental evidence recovered were consistent with the presence of a farmstead settlement which was in use from the Late Iron Age/early Romano-British period to the early part of the 2nd century AD. This settlement is defined by system of enclosures, field boundary ditches and the occupation debris found within them, spreads of topsoil derived material containing some artefactual remains, and a dispersed number of small pits and undated post holes were also identified.
