Abstract: |
A detailed gradiometer survey was conducted over land off Winchester Road (B3354), directly north of Fair Oak, Hampshire. The project was commissioned by Bloor Homes Southern with the aim of establishing the presence, or otherwise, and nature of detectable archaeological features on the site ahead of a proposed development. The site comprises three fields bound to the east by B3354 and to the north and west of Crowdhill Copse, totalling approximately 17ha. Parts of the smaller field to the west of the Site and the south east corner of the easternmost field were found to be overgrown and were not surveyed. These surface obstructions reduced the size of the survey to a total of 12.9ha. The site is fairly flat in the east and central fields and slopes gently down towards the westernmost extents. It should be noted that the areas of the Site that were thought to be of high archaeological importance within the Heritage Statement (WA 2013) are the areas that were predominantly unsuitable for survey and therefore cannot be commented on within this report. The geophysical survey has demonstrated an apparent low archaeological potential across the Site, although it is understood that a subsequent stage of archaeological evaluation will also be undertaken to test these initial results and to inform future archaeological mitigation, if deemed necessary. The geophysical survey was undertaken between 20th and 23rd October 2014. |
