Abstract: |
In May and June 2011, Archaeological Solutions Ltd (AS) conducted an archaeological evaluation at land adjacent to 33 Mursley Road, Swanbourne, Buckinghamshire MK17 0SH (SP 8070 2738 Figs. 1 and 2). The evaluation is required by the local planning authority in compliance with a planning condition attached to planning approval for a residential development (AVDC Planning Ref. 10/02212/APP). The early history of the Swanbourne area is relatively unknown and very little recent archaeological work has been undertaken in the immediate area. The site lies in the area of a possible medieval/postmedieval windmill. Four features were identified. Gully F1008 is undated. Two pits (F1004 and F1006) both produced pottery of prehistoric (Bronze Age to early Iron Age) date. It is suggested that the pottery is derived from single vessels contained in each pit. The evaluation also recovered four fragments (127g) of residual Romano-British CBM from Ditch F1010 (L1011). The latter contained medieval (12th - 14th century) pottery, and the documentary evidence suggests that a 14th - 16th century windmill was present in this area of the site. |
