Abstract:		 Wessex Archaeology was commissioned by CgMs Consulting on behalf of Redrow Homes Southwest Ltd (the Client) to undertake an archaeological watching brief during ground preparation at the site of the former Webbs factory, Bridge Road, Lymington, Hampshire (hereafter 'the Site'), centred on National Grid Reference (NGR) 432790 095860. The watching brief was required as a condition of planning consent (Application No. 82337) granted by New Forest District Council for a mixed use development of the Site. The Site's location on a spur of land jutting into the course of the River Lymington, suggested high potential for the survival of medieval salt working features such as salterns or storage 'granaries', related to the documented activity within the town from the 12th century. Works consisted of the monitoring of excavations made below the present ground surfaces for the purposes of ground preparation and landscaping in advance of a surcharge of material onto the Site by up to c. 4.0m aOD. The watching brief was initially maintained during trench excavation associated with the remediation of contaminated made ground deposits and subsequently during borehole drilling which included a series of 6 x 0.2m diameter boreholes distributed evenly throughout the central portion of the Site. Due to significant post-medieval and modern industrial development of the Site, the stratigraphy had suffered from heavy truncation and no in situ archaeological features or deposits were recorded. A tall, narrow, cylindrical earthenware pottery vessel, with three equally spaced, vertical looped handles was recovered during the trench excavation. A makers stamp of ELLIOT identified the vessel as that of Horace W Elliott, a designer and dealer in the arts and crafts movement of the late 19th century.
