Abstract:		 In June 2011 an archaeological evaluation was undertaken on the Waddesdon Estate, on a corridor of land within woodland, in advance of the construction of a minibus route. Seven trenches were excavated: archaeological cut features were present in three of them. One trench contained three intercutting ditches of Roman date, the functions of which were not determined. Two other trenches revealed silted ditches of post-medieval date. One of these had a later land drain cut into its fill: the other had a later ceramic land drain overlying it. It appears that drainage was an ongoing problem in this area in the post-medieval period at least. In five of the trenches a layer of redeposited clay, 0.3-0.5m deep, similar to the underlying natural clay, was present beneath topsoil and sealing most of the cut features. This contained post-medieval pottery sherds as well as residual fragments of Roman, Saxon and medieval pottery. It is likely that this material was deposited during the creation of the park, possibly to build up an area that with ongoing drainage problems. The source of the redeposited material is not known.
