Abstract:
Archaeological field evaluation, via trial trenching, was carried out on land in the vicinity of Home Farm, Great Stall, Swindon, as part of the wider proposal known as the Eastern Villages scheme. The evaluation identified the stone foundations of a small Romano-British structure, with potentially associated discrete features. A large pottery assemblage, coins, glass beads and a bronze brooch, provided a broad 1st to 4th century date for occupation of the site. Field boundary ditches, possible midden deposits and indeterminate features, all of the same broad date, were also recorded across the site. A late Bronze Age/early Iron Age ditch was identified as were a number of undated ditches. Variable ditch orientations suggested shifting field patterns and the potential for several phases of agricultural use of the land. Later ridge and furrow evidence was also recorded. An early to middle Neolithic arrowhead was recovered from subsoil deposits.
