Abstract: |
Wessex Archaeology was commissioned by Marlborough College to undertake an archaeological test pit evaluation comprising of three hand-dug tests pits 2 m square, adjacent the existing Kennet Building at Marlborough College, Wiltshire. The work which was undertaken between the 24th and 30th September 2019 and found no features of archaeological interest. One trench excavated to a depth of 1.20 m from ground level, encountered a series of dumped waste material of a modern late Victorian to early 20th Century date. The base of the test pit was comprised of a continuation of this material. Similar deposits were encountered in both the other trenches. As no underlying natural deposits were encountered, it is not known, if this material is sitting above an earlier buried surface but if so the potential for archaeological features may be still present. |
