Abstract:		 Wessex Archaeology was commissioned by Landmarc Support Services to conduct a programme of archaeological strip, map and record excavation in advance of the construction of Delta Track West, Defence Training Estates - Salisbury Plain (DTE SP). Planning permission (E/09/1674/FUL) with conditions has been granted for the construction of an 1.7km track to improve the connectivity of the training areas in DTE SP West with the new EIP infrastructure on DTE SP East. This document presents a post-excavation assessment of the excavation works conducted at Delta Track West between October and November 2011, and includes proposals for a programme of post-excavation analysis and publication, as well as an outline of the resources required. The excavation has allowed the definition of a chronological sequence from the Early Bronze Age to the modern period. The project has identified evidence of Early Bronze Age activity overlain by Romano-British and post-Roman agricultural activity and field systems that indicate near-by occupation sites in the southern portion of the Site; and an important Bronze Age funerary landscape, including a linear cremation cemetery, overlain by undated field system adjacent to Delta Crossing in the north. The results of these works will form the subject of a Wessex Archaeology paper which will focus on the Bronze Age funerary landscape and will provide important additions to our knowledge and understanding of local and regional archaeological resource during the Middle to Late Bronze Age.
