Abstract:
Wessex Archaeology was commissioned by PSE Associates on behalf of Whitbread Group PLC, to undertake an archaeological trial trench evaluation on land at the Premier Inn, Pearce Way, Salisbury (centred on NGR SU 16096, 32356). The evaluation was undertaken as a pre-commencement condition associated with the construction of a new annex building and additional car parking within a currently wooded area (Planning Application 15/03556/FUL). The evaluation was undertaken between the 2nd and 4th November 2015 and involved the excavation of two trenches, constituting a sample area of just under 7% of the total development footprint. Despite the generally high archaeological potential of the area, with evidence for Neolithic, Bronze Age and Romano-British activity in the vicinity, no archaeological features or deposits were found. The fairly steep and north-western facing slope may have been less attractive for occupation and activity making the Site more marginal land until the modern era. The excavated trenches were targeted within the development footprint and constitute a sample area of just under 7% of the total development footprint in plan. The results are therefore considered to provide a reliable indication as to the archaeological potential and character of the Site. Consultation with the County Archaeologist and Assistant County Archaeologist indicates that therefore no archaeological mitigation works are required.
