Abstract:		 An evaluation carried out on the northern part of Site 126, as part of the Abingdon Reservor Proposals 93/91, involved the machine excavation of trenches in specifically targeted areas chosen as a result of previous cropmark and fieldwalking surveys. Bronze Age and Iron Age activity was indicated over the site by the presence of pottery sherds, but the majority of the archaeology dated to the Romano-British period. Ditches, gullies, pits, layers, metalled surfaces, infant burials and postholes of 2nd to 5th century AD Roman date were excavated. A good correlation was observed between the features revealed by trenching and those indicated by the cropmarks. Saxon activity in the area was indicated by two ditches and some pottery sherds; smaller amounts of medieval and post-medieval material were recovered. [Au(adp)]
