Abstract: |
Wessex Archaeology carried out an evaluation on the site of a proposed In Vessel Composting facility. Nine trenches were excavated, in seven of which a roughly north - south aligned trackway, previously identified as a crop mark on aerial photographs, was recorded. The western ditch of the trackway continued as an extant earthwork to the north of the excavation area. The trackway is thought to have been a ride linking Stevenstone House Park with kennels identified on 19th-century Ordnance Survey maps. A number of land drains and evidence of short-lived ploughing were identified. |
