Abstract: |
An archaeological watching brief was undertaken by Cotswold Archaeology on behalf of ReneSola UK Ltd during groundworks associated with the construction of a solar farm at Field House Farm, Ladwell, Winchester, Hampshire. The watching brief followed a trial trench evaluation which had identified a series of features including a substantial ditch which formed part of a possible Iron Age enclosure and evidence for settlement activity of Late Iron Age/Romano British period. A good assemblage of pottery was also recovered, dating from this period. A number of features of archaeological interest were observed during groundworks, with recovered pottery from the Middle to Late Bronze Age to Late Romano British period. This is largely later in date than identified during the evaluation. The features consisted of a series of ditches, one previously identified during the trial trench evaluation and geophysical survey, and two which were previously unknown, although indicated by minor geophysical anomalies. They are likely to form boundaries or enclosures within the wider periphery of small scale settlement beyond the northern boundary of the site and are of generally similar character to those already recorded during the evaluation. |
