Abstract:
An archaeological trench evaluation was undertaken by AC archaeology ahead of the construction of a new golf driving range and associated facilities. The site is located on the northwest outskirts of Topsham on land to the northeast of Exeter Road and opposite residential streets comprising Wessex Close and Retreat Drive. It comprises an 'L' shaped parcel of arable land extending back from the road on flat ground at around 10m above Ordnance Datum. The evaluation followed a magnetometer survey by Substrata and comprised nine machine-excavated trenches, each 1.8m wide and totalling 185m in length. Three trenches contained archaeological features and the remaining trenches were negative. Ditch F303/F903 is a former field boundary ditch of post-medieval date and was a clear anomaly identified by a the geophysical survey. Gully F803/F905 is undated, but probably relates to post-medieval or modern agricultural activity on the site.
