Abstract: |
Wessex Archaeology was commissioned by Hampshire County Council Property Services to undertake an archaeological watching brief at Ropley Primary School, Church Street, Ropley, Alresford. The watching brief was required as a condition of planning approval for proposed sewage, electrical and drainage improvements within the school grounds, centred on NGR 464484 131869. The fieldwork was carried out on the 29th of July 2011. The watching brief monitored all stripping and excavations during the first phase of works (excavation of new sewer plant and building). The works revealed no archaeological features but did encounter evidence of previous modern drainage and fencing works. The works also revealed that the Site had been landscaped with the southern end of the site substantially built up to achieve a level ground surface to the playing field. Before the commencement of the second phase of works (installation of shallow drainage) discussion has held with the Hampshire County Council Archaeological Officer. On the basis of the results from the first phase of watching brief, the relatively shallow impact from the proposed works and the low potential for any archaeological remains, it was decided by the Hampshire County Council Archaeological Officer that the second phase of works would not need to be monitored. |
