Abstract:
Wessex Archaeology (WA) was commissioned by Ancala Water Services on behalf of the Ministry of Defence to undertake an archaeological watching brief during groundworks to monitor the removal of the Larkhill Spillway existing structures, chambers and pipework and reinstate the area to grassland. The Larkhill Spillway is situated within the Stonehenge World Heritage Site, on land owned by The National Trust and transects the Scheduled Monument of The Cursus and Stonehenge Down. The concrete pipes and chambers which formed the Spillway date to the 1920's and their removal meets one of the recommendations of the 2015 Stonehenge World Heritage Site Management Plan. The removal works included minimal groundworks to reinstate the spillway area to grassland. No features, deposits or artefacts of archaeological interest were observed during the works, despite the high potential for prehistoric Neolithic and Bronze Age remains in the vicinity.
