Abstract:		 Wessex Archaeology was commissioned by City and Country Bramshill Ltd to undertake an archaeological evaluation at Bramshill House, Bramshill, Hampshire. Bramshill House is a large Grade I Listed Jacobean property (list entry 1340025) situated within a Grade II* Registered Park and Garden (list entry 1000165). The evaluation trench was located to the south-east of the house (NGR 475994, 159564) within an area believed to have formerly been an Italian Garden. Several contemporary plans of this area are available dating to the 17th and 18th century and the evaluation trench was targeted on projected location of the south-west boundary wall of the garden. The evaluation was able to confirm the position of the garden boundary wall as indicated on a 1699 survey and demonstrate its good state of preservation below ground level with at least ten courses remaining. On the innermost face of the wall a layer of re-deposited natural clay on a brick rubble base was thought to form a path and the likely position of Lady Abney's Walk, thought to be associated with the 17th century garden. A mortar rich layer beneath this suggests adjacent construction or demolition activity. Also adjacent to the north-north-west side of the wall and possibly on a similar alignment was a substantial cut feature, the full extent and depth of which could not be established within the limitations of the trench; this is tentatively interpreted as a boundary ditch.
