Abstract: |
Between March 2014 and April 2014 Foundations Archaeology undertook a programme of archaeological watching brief on land at Manor Farm, Allington, Devizes, Wiltshire. The site was located to the west of Manor Farm and comprised an agricultural field bounded by agricultural tracks and access roads to the north, east and south and an agricultural field to the west. The strip, map and sample revealed extensive and significant deposits within the site area in the form of twenty-five archaeological features. These comprised an early phase of Late Bronze Age/Early Iron Age occupation in the form of pits pits/postholes and ditches/gullies (including two possible partial ring gullies), which is likely to extend further to the east beyond the excavated area. This putative settlement was partially overlain by a probable Romano-British field system, comprising a drove road and associated paddocks. |
