Abstract: |
Wessex Archaeology (WA) was commissioned by CgMs Consulting (the Client) to carry out an archaeological field evaluation on land to the west of Romill Close, West End, Southampton, Hampshire, centred on National Grid Reference (NGR) 445593, 115416 The Site comprises a number of irregular shaped parcels of scrub and grassland and areas of tree cover. The Site is bordered to the south by the A27 Mansbridge Road, and by the M27 to the north. To the west is a factory building while Romill Close is located directly to the east. Planning permission (ref:C/11/69687) has been granted by Eastleigh Borough Council for the construction of 58 dwellings, access roads, open spaces and landscaping on condition that a programme of archaeological work was undertaken. Fourteen trenches were excavated within the footprint of the new development and revealed a number of post-medieval or modern field drains, drainage ditches as well as cast iron water pipes criss-crossing the Site. The only feature of interest was a large north south aligned ditch, which is also likely to be of post-medieval or modern date and forms an old field boundary or perhaps large drainage channel. There was no evidence of significant archaeological remains that would be impacted upon by the proposed development. Following consultation with the Hannah Fluck of Hampshire County Council, it has been indicated that no further fieldwork will be required to meet planning condition (number 14) which has been placed against planning permission C/11/69697. |
