Abstract:
Between May 2007 and August 2008 Oxford Archaeology (OA) carried out an archaeological excavation and watching brief at Magdalen College School, Oxford, where a proposal has been submitted to redevelop the Dining Hall (Planning Application No. 06/01530/FUL). Residual early-middle Saxon pottery was revealed and may be indicative of Anglo-Saxon activity on the banks of the Cherwell, possibly relating to a river crossing on the site of Magdalen Bridge. Three 19th- and 20th-century ditches were revealed on the western side of the excavation, which may have represented a re-establishment of a medieval field boundary. A large 19th-century gravel quarry respected the limits of the ditches, and may have been dug to provide material for local development. There was no evidence for any activity associated with the 17th-century Civil War defences lying c 100 m to the north.
