Abstract: |
The watching brief is the final phase of a staged approach in determining the archaeological potential of the site and follows previous non-intrusive and intrusive archaeological investigations.
The watching brief comprised the monitoring of the excavation of seven areas located in
the north, central and southern parts of the overall site. Three trial holes following on from a previous archaeological evaluation carried out by Wessex Archaeology, were recorded as watching brief areas WB area 1, WB area 2 and WB area 3. Four additional areas were subject to monitoring on 9th May 2019 during ground removal. The watching brief was successful in confirming the results of the previous intrusive works
in that there is a considerable made ground present on site, and the survival of any potential archaeological remains has been compromised by the construction of former and existing buildings within the site. No evidence for archaeological remains has been found during the previous evaluations or watching brief; there is no indication of ‘background’ out of context finds and none have been seen at the site. |
