Abstract: |
Between the 2nd and 10th of July 2007, Oxford Archaeology (OA) carried out a field evaluation on the site of the Hydrus Project, at AWE Aldermaston, West Berkshire (SU 602 640). The fieldwork was undertaken for Atkins Ltd on behalf of AWE in advance of new development. The evaluation revealed an undated ditch, which may relate to enclosures associated with the medieval or post-medieval Aldermaston Estate. A second undated feature, which may also be an enclosure ditch or possibly an erosion gully left when the gravel terrace was deposited was also observed. Evidence for modern landscaping associated with the use of the site as an airfield during WWII was observed within all except one of the trenches. No other significant archaeology was encountered. |
