Abstract The abstract describing the content of the publication or report |
Reports the results of an evaluation and excavation at the Rover Vehicle Quality Building, also an evaluation and watching brief at the adjacent Rover Paintshop site. The evaluation at the Vehicle Quality site revealed a ditch of probable LBA/EIA date and this was fully revealed and recorded in the course of excavation. No other contemporary features were identified, although three post-medieval ditches were found. Finds included LBA/EIA pottery, bone, and a few pieces of flint from the prehistoric feature, and pottery sherds from Roman and medieval ploughsoils. The feature is of interest as evidence of this date is relatively sparse in Oxford, particularly on the limestone geology. There are notes on `The later prehistoric pottery' by Alistair Barclay (94--6), `The Roman pottery' by Paul Booth (96), `The medieval and post-medieval pottery' by Paul Blinkhorn (96--7), `The flint' by Philippa Bradley (97), `The animal bone' by Nicola Scott (97), and `The environmental evidence' by Mark Robinson (97--8). | |||||||||||||||
