Abstract: |
An archaeological evaluation was undertaken by Cotswold Archaeology in March 2010 at the request of Mr and Mrs Fry on land at Bridgemead, Avebury, Wiltshire. Two trenches were excavated. The evaluation revealed the probable continuation of a ditch associated with a possible Prehistoric or Romano-British trackway observed during a previous phase of evaluation. Two ditches of 12th to 13th-century date and one ditch of probable 12th to 13th-century date were also identified. Taken with the results of two previous evaluations, the later features suggest the presence of a burgage plot fronting onto what is now the High Street with land divisions to the rear. |
