Abstract: |
The works comprised the excavation of 1 trench measuring 10m by 1.8m and two trenches measuring 15m by 1.8m, equating to a 4% sample of the 0.18ha site. The trenches were laid out within the footprints of the proposed buildings. All works were undertaken in accordance with the Written Scheme of Investigation (OA 2020) produced by Oxford Archaeology and approved by David Radford, Archaeologist for Oxford City Council. Oxford Archaeology were appointed by CPC Project Services LLP to conduct an archaeological evaluation at the Dragon School, Oxford. The evaluation comprised the excavation of three trenches within the footprint of a proposed new Music School, a link to Lynam Hall and associated landscaping.The evaluation recorded three shallow gullies and terracing deposits for the current tarmacked sports area. Although no datable artefacts were recovered from the gullies, they possibly represent garden features to the rear of Lane House, which appears to have originally extended further to the north-east prior to the construction of the sports area.The evaluation was carried out over the course of two days, on the 19th and 20th October 2020. |
