Abstract:		 OA carried out a WB and evaluation at Stockham House, Denchworth Road, Wantage, Oxfordshire between January to August 2012. (centered on SU 39309 88882). They revealed a series of ditches and shallow pits likely to belong to middle Iron Age enclosures and fields, which the artefactual evidence would suggest may be associated with a nearby settlement. Single features containing pottery of the Bronze Age and of the Roman period were also found. Human bones belonging to part of a single juvenile individual were recovered from one of the ditches at the south-west end of the site. The site was covered by ridge-and-furrow cultivation on a north-south alignment, whose northern limits were evident as a low broad bank close to the northern edge of the main field that was examined. A ditch following the same alignment was probably associated. Evidence for 20th century landscaping, probably associated with the adjacent airfield, was recorded in a trench which was located over the proposed new route for the Wilts and Berks Canal at the north-west edge of the evaluated area
