Abstract
The investigation of the prehistoric landscape along the route of the A303 road improvement between Andover, Hampshire and Amesbury, Wiltshire 1984--1987
Peter S Bellamy
5 - 81
Limited archaeological work in advance of a road improvement programme examined the north side of an Iron Age enclosure and several sets of field systems. This area of a ditched enclosure was occupied from the fifth to first centuries BC. Evidence for the cultivation of both wet and dry soils, grain storage and processing, animal husbandry, butchery and skinning, the use of local and non-local pottery, and textile production was revealed. The extensive linear boundary systems were determined as either undated or of probable Middle-Late Bronze Age construction in a well-established open landscape. The report is divided into four sections. Section one, `The excavation of an Iron Age enclosure at Lains Farm' (7--45) includes `The artefacts and economic evidence' edited by Elaine Morris (15--41) with `The pottery' by Elaine Morris (17--28), `The fired clay objects and material' by Lorraine Mepham (28--30), `The worked stone and flint' by Peter S Bellamy (30--1), `The iron object' by Peter S Bellamy (31), `The worked bone' by Peter S Bellamy (31--2), `The human bone' by Vincent Jenkins (32), `The animal bone' by Jennie P Coy (32--6), `The carbonised and mineralised plant remains' by Wendy J Carruthers (36--41). Completing section one is `The environmental evidence' by M J Allen (41--5). Section two, `The A303 watching brief: Thruxton to Amesbury' by Peter S Bellamy (45--63) includes reports on `The pottery' by Elaine Morris (52--3), the worked flint, and `The environmental evidence' by M J Allen (55--63). Section three is `The A303 watching brief: Andover to Thruxton' by P Harding (63--72). Finally section four is `The A303 project' (72--7) containing summaries of `The Lains Farm enclosure' by Peter S Bellamy & Elaine Morris (72--4), `The A303 watching brief: Amesbury to Thruxton' by Peter S Bellamy (74--6), `The A303 watching brief' Andover to Thruxton' by P Harding (76), and `General conclusions' by Peter S Bellamy (76--7).

Rescue excavations on a Bronze Age and Romano-British site at Daneshill, Basingstoke, 1980--81

Tim Schadla-Hall
83 - 105
In December 1980 observation during road construction resulted in the discovery and salvage excavation of a Middle Bronze Age cremation cemetery. Background research has produced evidence for Late Bronze Age activity in the area. Subsequent trial trenching and a geophysical survey located Romano-British features. Limited excavation revealed an enclosure, droveway and iron smithing together with a pair of cremation burials. With contributions on `Cemetery organisation and date' by J C Barrett (90--3), the iron smithing evidence by R F Tylecote (95) and J H Cleland (95), `The pottery' by Sue Gill (microfiche 6--16), cremations: `Bronze Age and Roman' by G Grainger (microfiche 17--18) and `Additional Bronze Age cremations' by C A Marlow & L C Winter (microfiche 19--20), and `The botanical remains' by F J Green (21--3).

Site evaluation and watching brief at London Road, Holybourne, Alton
David Graham
107 - 115
Site evaluation and subsequent watching brief at a housing development. The work located the badly disturbed remains of Roman timber buildings, pits and wells and showed that the Roman town at Neatham had originally extended across most of the site. With contributions on `The pottery' by M A B Lyne (112--3) and `The coins' by R A Merson (114). Au(abr)
Investigations at the Anglo-Saxon church of St Peter, Titchfield, 1982--1989
Michael Hare
117 - 144
The historical evidence for the Anglo-Saxon minster church at Titchfield is elaborated. Work on the fabric of the church has included the unblocking of an early window built entirely of through-stones high in the west wall of the nave. In addition the east face of the church-arch wall was examined and the wall was found to be of Anglo-Saxon date above the present arch which is a later insertion; the wall is contemporary with the Anglo-Saxon fabric at the west end of the church. The wall also retains evidence for the Anglo-Saxon chancel in the form of the scars remaining where the early chancel walls have been torn away. The results of minor investigations into the early porch at the west end are reported, together with those of a `Watching brief at Titchfield Church July 1989' by Clive Harfield (130--4) which was maintained at the west end of the south aisle. An early date, probably in the late seventh or early-eighth century, is maintained for the construction of the first church. Au
Excavations beneath the Great Yew, St Mary's churchyard, Selborne
D Allen
Sue Anderson
145 - 152
Small scale excavations were carried out following the fall of the Great Yew during the storms of January 1990. The remains of seven articulated skeletons were uncovered, together with disarticulated bones from at least twenty other individuals. There were few other finds. Pottery associated with the earliest burial in the group suggests a medieval or later date for all the excavated graves. Au
A fifteenth century inn at Andover
Edward Roberts
153 - 170
The detailed building contract made in 1445 between the Warden of Winchester College and two carpenters to build a timber-framed inn for the College at Andover can be shown to relate to the Angel inn. Detailed measurements of the building, which still survives, have been made during renovation work. The building consists of four ranges, built around a courtyard. MH
A third century Roman burial from Manor Farm, Hurstbourne Priors
D Allen
253 - 257
A chance discovery led to the excavation of a third century inhumation. The encoffined burial was of an adult male, accompanied by two pottery vessels, one of samian, the other from the Farnham/Alice Holt kilns. With a report on `The skeleton' by Sue Anderson (253--4), and the `Grave goods', including a Samian dish with a stamp identified by Brenda Dickinson (254--5). Au
