Abstract: |
On the 13th June 2016, Oxford Archaeology (OA) carried out an archaeological evaluation on the Islamabad site at Tilford near Farnham in Surrey. The site contains a series of buildings which were built during the Second World War as a camp school. The work was commissioned by Centenary Constructions as part of a joint scheme of historic building recording and archaeological evaluation which formed a condition of planning permission for the development of the site. This 7 trench archaeological investigation formed Phase 1 of a 2 part evaluation programme with a further 5 trenches (Phase 2) to be completed at a later date. No evidence of archaeological activity was observed during the evaluation. Of the 7 trenches, 6 were positioned within the footprints of recently removed buildings where their construction may have truncated the underlying natural sands. The further trench contained an intact topsoil and subsoil but was also void of archaeological interest. |
