Abstract: |
An archaeological evaluation was undertaken by Cotswold Archaeology in late May/June 2017 at Kentwood Farm, Wokingham, Berkshire. Sixty one trenches were excavated revealing limited evidence of archaeological activity.
Trench 30 contained four features of a Late Iron Age/Romano-British date, which probably represent a small scale agricultural farmstead. A second trench (Trench 8) contained a shallow gully, which also contained Romano-British pottery. This may represent part of an associated outlying field system. A number of other trenches recorded the presence of post-medieval field boundaries which are recorded on nineteenth and twentieth century mapping and which are identifiable on aerial photographs from the 1940’s.
