Abstract: |
An archaeological evaluation was undertaken on land off Old Shaw Lane, Swindon in May 1996. Previous archaeological observations in this part of west Swindon had produced finds of Roman date, with suggestions that industrial (pottery-production) sites might be expected in the general area. Four machine-excavated trenches were dug so as to provide even coverage across the accessible parts of the intended development area. No archaeological features were encountered, and only a single flint flake and twenty sherds of probable medieval (13th century or later) pottery were recovered from the base of the topsoil horizon.
