Abstract: |
Between May and June 2020, Cotswold Archaeology carried out an archaeological watching brief during groundworks associated with the construction of a new Aldi at the Former East Point Centre, Bursledon Road, Southampton. No archaeologically significant deposits were identified during the course of the watching brief. All trenches showed evidence for substantial levelling and landscaping across the site. The levelling was identified by the presence of modern made ground comprising an extensive series of dumped deposits built up to 1.7m in depth above the natural geology. No archaeology or artefacts were identified that could be associated with the geological river terrace gravels found at the site. The natural geology of the site slopes to the south-east, with the deeper made ground within this portion of the site. |
