Abstract: |
An archaeological evaluation was undertaken at the site of Meggeson Avenue, Townhill, Southampton, which consisted of a two trench evaluation. The earliest features encountered during the evaluation appeared to be late 18th or 19th century in origin relating to the landscaping and construction of an ornamental lake. This appears to have removed all pre-existing in-situ soil horizons and potentially any earlier features that may have been present overlying the natural sand. All deposits encountered overlying this late 18th or 19th century phase of activity were associated with further landscaping of the area during the 19th or 20th century. No features pre-dating the late 18th or 19th century activity on site were identified. |
