Abstract:
Wessex Archaeology was commissioned by RPS Consulting Services to undertake a programme of archaeological monitoring and recording (AMR) during groundworks associated with the construction of a new building on the site of the former Kennet Building. The monitored works were centred on NGR 418325 168537, at Kennet Building, Marlborough College, Wiltshire. This AMR was part of a programme of archaeological works, which included an archaeological test pit evaluation adjacent to the Kennet Building. The AMR was undertaken in response to Condition 4 of planning permission (19/04481/FUL). The AMR was intermittent, totalling 18 days between 21 November 2019 to 25 August 2020. During the AMR no archaeological features were discovered. In all seven trenches monitored across the development site there was significant evidence of heavy truncation and modern disturbance associated with the construction of the road, carpark and Kennet building. A large shallow pit was identified within Trench 3 believed to have been backfilled during levelling works associated with earlier construction/landscaping across the site. A modern wall foundation was also recorded within Trench 5, though the precise function of the wall remains unclear. Elsewhere modern manholes and service trenches were identified. Minimal site records have been scanned as a security copy and are held at Wessex Archaeology as agreed with Wiltshire Museum.
