Abstract:
During June and July 2007 Oxford Archaeology carried out an evaluation at Peacock Farm, Bracknell, Berkshire, for Redrow Homes (Southern) Ltd. Nine 30 m trial trenches were excavated across the northern slope of Jennett's Hill, Site 6, Jennett's Hill Play Area. Three contained archaeology and were widely dispersed across the site so did not form a concentration of archaeological remains. In Trench 362 the archaeological deposits were severely truncated, nevertheless the remains of two probable post-medieval ditches were identified, along with several undated possible pits and tree bowls. A small fragment of probable Iron Age pottery was recovered from one of the tree bowls. Trench 364 contained a single ditch terminus probably part of a former Iron Age field boundary. Heavily abraded, almost certainly residual, mid or late Bronze Age pottery was recovered from the basal fill and a single waste flake of flint was recovered from the main fill. This feature does not appear to be connected directly with the late Iron Age settlement activity located in the targeted excavation Site 2 and may represent an outlying field boundary. A large 5 m wide feature was recorded in Trench 368. This feature was not excavated as it had been hand dug in trenches 316 and 317 during the 2006 evaluation. The results indicate the archaeological remains are of very limited significance. There is no evidence for an extension of the Late Iron Age settlement observed in targeted excavation Site 2 extending eastwards into Site 6.
