Abstract:		 An excavation was conducted by AOC Archaeology Group on land at the corner of Portchester Road and Shearwater Avenue, Fareham. The earliest evidence of activity on the site was a few stray finds of Neolithic worked flint tools and waste flakes. Three small Middle Bronze Age pits appear to be the remnants of cremation burials or ritual funerary deposits. In the late Iron Age a series of field boundaries and post-built timber structures were established on the site. This field system appears to have remained with little change until the late Roman period when it was replaced by a much smaller enclosure at the northern end of the site. As well as a number of working hollows, a 'Germanic-style' sunken-featured building was recorded in the late Roman phase. Throughout the late Iron Age and Roman periods the lack of domestic structures on the site suggest the main focus of the settlement was located elsewhere. The presence of demolition debris from some of the features of this date suggests that there may have been a Roman masonry building nearby. The late Roman pottery assemblage included handmade grog-tempered 'wasters,' suggesting pottery manufacture on or near the site. Sparse evidence of Early Saxon activity was recorded but the focus of activity appears to have shifted away from the site at the end of the Roman period.
