Abstract: |
A programme of archaeological investigation was undertaken by Cotswold Archaeology in May 2011 at the request of Hannick Homes at the Barnes Coaches Site, Aldbourne, Wiltshire. In compliance with an approved WSI (CA 2011), an area approximately of 40m by 22m was excavated across the development area. Excavations uncovered a late prehistoric pit, a potential Romano-British ditched field enclosure aligned broadly north-south/east-west and two Romano-British pits. The remaining features consisted of refuse pits, a well and a north/south aligned ditch, representing medieval and post-medieval domestic activity to the rear of the historic street frontage. Undated features included a north/south aligned juvenile inhumation burial, pits, postholes and former hedge lines which probably relate to the afore-mentioned medieval and postmedieval activity. |
