Abstract:		 An archaeological evaluation was undertaken by Cotswold Archaeology in April and May 2018 along the proposed route of the New Eastern Villages Southern Connector Road (NEV SCR), Wanborough, Swindon. One hundred and fifteen trenches were excavated. The evaluation identified archaeological features and artefacts dating from the prehistoric to the modern period. Two flint flakes of Mesolithic/Early Neolithic date were recovered as residual finds from a later furrow in the south of the site. A single cremation of probable Middle Bronze Age date was recovered in the middle of the site. Nine sherds of later Iron Age pottery were also recovered. The majority of the features encountered were Roman in date, including part of a large farmstead in the south of the site and part of a smaller farmstead in the middle of the site. A number of postmedieval/ modern field boundaries and furrows were also identified, with evidence for a farmstead or small settlement of this date in the centre of the site.
