Abstract: |
An excavation was undertaken across the site as part of the second tranche of archaeological work in advance of the Maidenhead, Windsor and Eton Flood Alleviation Scheme. The site adjoined Marsh Lane East Site 2. No further prehistoric finds or features were discovered during tranche 2. The excavation uncovered traces of a trackway and associated post hole structure of probable 1st century AD date. The trackway formed part of an ancient landscape feature, which survived into the post-medieval period and was also recorded at Lake End Road West, where the trackway ditches produced early Iron age pottery. The small quantity of pottery froom the site suggested that a late Iron age or early Romano-British settlement may have been located nearby. A small number of post-medieval linear field boundaries were identified.[Au(adp)] |
