| Title | Report, Images, and Data from an Archaeological Investigation by Strip, Map, and Sample Excavation at The Old Vicarage, Anchor Road, Calne, 2019. |
| Description | This collection comprises the Project Report, Written Scheme of Investigation, images, site records, and spreadsheets from an archaeological watching brief to monitor ground works for the construction of a proposed new swimming pool at at The Old Vicarage, Anchor Road, Calne. The work was undertaken by Wessex Archaeology in 2019. The investigation confirmed the presence of two substantial north to south orientated ditches, which based on artefactual evidence could date to the medieval period, although were still extant and being infilled in the post medieval period during landscaping within the grounds of the vicarage. The ditches may be part of a boundary demarcating the site of a medieval monastic lodge, which is thought to have been located within the grounds of the current vicarage. Although no further evidence of in situ human burials indicating the extension of a medieval cemetery were identified during the investigation, as had been recorded in 2002 during construction of a garage within the vicarage grounds to the west, a small amount of disturbed human bone along with animal bone was recovered from the fill of one of the recorded ditches. These remains are likely to have been displaced from the possible cemetery in the west possibly during later landscaping works within the grounds of the vicarage. |
