Abstract: |
An archaeological evaluation was undertaken by Cotswold Archaeology in November 2009 at the request of CgMs Consulting on behalf of Wainhomes (SW) Holdings Limited at land at Moredon Bridge, West Swindon, Wiltshire. Eighteen trenches were excavated. An area of Late Bronze Age/Early Iron Age settlement was identified in three trenches in the eastern part of the site, in the form of ditches, postholes and a pit. The features contained pottery, animal bone, fired clay and burnt stone. One linear feature contained a small sherd of Roman pottery which may be intrusive into an earlier feature. The remains of ridge and furrow cultivation and modern drainage features were recorded. |
