Abstract: |
Wessex Archaeology was commissioned to undertake archaeological monitoring and recording of all ground works associated with the construction of a new single storey dwelling at The Grange, 40 High Street, Pewsey, Wiltshire SN9 5AQ.
The works monitored included the excavation of footings for a standard beam, the excavation of a utility trench between the new property and High Street to connect to mains water and electricity (the trench was monitored to the corner of the existing building to the north and then as no archaeology had been recorded, it was agreed that monitoring could cease) and the excavation of a soakaway for rainwater. Due to brush removal prior to the ground works, the proposed area for car park was already at the level required and no further excavation took place. No archaeological features or deposits were identified and no artefacts were recovered. In all trenches the natural geology was encountered indicating the potential for archaeology to survive was good. Minimal site records have been scanned as a security copy and are held at Wessex Archaeology as agreed with Wiltshire Museum. |
