Abstract:
An archaeological evaluation was undertaken by Cotswold Archaeology in October 2010 at land to the rear of Green Farm, Urchfont, Wiltshire. A total of two trenches was excavated. No features or deposits of archaeological interest were observed during groundworks. Natural greensand was overlain by subsoil and topsoil in both trenches. Residual worked flint, Roman pottery and a quantity of medieval pottery was recovered from the subsoil and topsoil, along with modern glass, brick and tile from the topsoil. Medieval and post-medieval pottery, worked flint, including a scraper as well as metal artefacts, modern glass and ceramic building material were recovered from the topsoil and subsoil. It is not known whether the site was ploughed and it is possible that these finds were deposited during manuring. In addition, the planting of an orchard within the site at sometime between 1924 and 1939 may explain the mixture of finds identified within these deposits, as there is the possibility that soils were imported into the site during this period.
