Abstract: |
An archaeological evaluation was undertaken by Cotswold Archaeology in January 2016 on land at Jersey Cottages, Heyford Road, Kirtlington, Oxfordshire. Eight trenches were excavated. The trenches were spread across one large and one small field, five of them positioned to investigate linear anomalies detected during an earlier geophysical survey. The remaining trenches were located either in proximity to geophysical anomalies or in geophysically 'blank' areas. The geophysical anomalies were exposed with varying levels of success but each positively identified anomaly appeared to be either of natural origin or associated with field drains of relatively modern date. In addition to the geophysical anomalies, further features were also identified, including a number of discrete pits, as well as natural features, including tree throws. Features of archaeological interest were mostly confined to the northern half of the site and produced evidence of 16th- to 18th- century activity, with later occupation also evident and occasional sherds of residual medieval pottery indicating that there had been earlier occupation in the vicinity. |
