Abstract: |
Wessex Archaeology was commissioned by CgMs Consulting, on behalf of Laing Homes Strategic Land, to undertake a programme of archaeological evaluation prior to development of an area of land to the west of Newbury, West Berkshire. The Archaeological Officer of West Berkshire District Council had requested the investigations in response to a proposed new Residential Development. Particular attention was given to the post-medieval period for the site lies within the battlefield area of the first Battle of Newbury (1643), as defined by the English Heritage Battlefields Register. Consequentially, a metal-detector survey was undertaken before intrusive investigation commenced. A small range of archaeological deposits was recorded indicating a general sequence of activity across the site. |
