Abstract:
During May and November 2001, an archaeological watching brief was carried out by AOC Archaeology Group on land previously occupied by Forbury House (NGR: SU 7180 7350). The archaeological features recorded ranged in date from the Saxon to the post-Medieval period and consisted of pits, ditches, postholes, buried soils and building remains. Of particular note were the presence of Saxon features and also a large assemblage of Medieval industrial waste found within a backfilled gravel pit. In the later periods however, evidence for renewed land management and changes in the land usage was noted in the form of building development. Over half of the site had been truncated by basements associated with the building that had latterly occupied the site.
