Abstract: |
Wessex Archaeology was commissioned by Star Services to provide an archaeological watching brief during groundwork's located on land immediately adjacent to Vale Cottage, Duck Street, Steeple Langford, Wiltshire, centred on National Grid Reference (NGR) SU 03700 37340. The works were carried out from January to the end of late February 2010 and consisted of attendance during the initial topsoil strip and during the excavation of a number of foundation trenches and soak-aways. The watching brief did not identify any archaeological features, deposits or finds. Two natural tree throws were noted as intersected by the foundation trenches, although these features were not associated with any pre-modern finds. The absence of any archaeological features or finds, together with the evidence for a high water table, strongly suggests that the Site lies outside the occupied area within the historic core of the village. |
