Abstract: |
Wessex Archaeology was commissioned by Mildren Construction on behalf of Hampshire County Council to carry out an archaeological watching brief during advance site clearance works for the Whitehill and Bordon Relief Road Phase II in Hampshire. The clearance works involved the removal of tree stumps along the route of the proposed relief road between National Grid Reference (NGR) 479230 133920 and 478830 135495. The watching brief was undertaken between the 4th April and the 18th May 2016. The watching brief monitored the removal of tree stumps after felling via mechanical excavation and with the use of stump cutters and grinders. No archaeological remains were identified during the watching brief. In parts of the site excavations were not to a sufficient depth to reveal any surviving archaeological remains, and in other areas the excavations revealed deposits of modern made-ground and evidence that the area had been landscaped in the past. The clearance works were partially located along the route of an embankment for a now disused military railway, which is understood to account for the majority of earlier landscaping. |
