Abstract:
Wessex Archaeology was commissioned by CgMs Consulting to undertake a small evaluation of seven trenches at NGR 516149, 291403 to supplement a previous larger phase of evaluation. The main aim of the project was to establish whether any prisoner of war graves associated with the adjacent Napoleonic Norman Cross Camp (Scheduled Ancient Monument (SAM) number 364539) extended into the proposed development area. No traces of any burials were discovered and it was concluded that the present day north-western boundary of the SAM was contemporary with the camp. Sparse prehistoric activity was identified consisting of a small pit and the terminus of a small curvilinear feature, this seemed to confirm the results of the previous evaluation that the focus of prehistoric and later Romano-British activity lay further to the north. A shallow ditch adjacent to the pit was also identified but could not be dated. A post-medieval ditch was located and this was thought to correspond to a field boundary visible on the 1887 OS mapping. A further post-medieval gully and a brick lined drain were also discovered. Four wide shallow features were also seen, it was not clear whether these were the remnants of furrows or natural features.
