Abstract: |
Wessex Archaeology was commissioned by TC Sports Ltd to carry out an archaeological trial trench evaluation on land proposed for residential development at St Georges Works, Trowbridge, Wiltshire (centred on NGR ST 85766 57956). The proposed archaeological trial trenching comprised the excavation of two trenches measuring 10 m x 1.30 m and a test pit measuring 2 m x 2 m in land currently used as a car park. The work took place on 18th and 19th January 2016. Of the two trenches, Trench 1, to the north, produced features dating to the medieval period and possibly relating to burgage plots. The Test pit 3 also produced features dating to this period. The remaining trench, Trench 2, contained no archaeological features. It should be noted, however, that this area was heavily disturbed by footings relating to the modern works, having in all likelihood previously been levelled. These actions may have truncated any earlier features. |
