Abstract: |
In August 2015 Oxford Archaeology undertook an archaeological watching brief for Martin Ashley Architects on behalf of Eton College, Windsor during resurfacing works of the main courtyard. The work was found not to have impacted beyond the sandy foundations of the modern cobbled surface, leaving buried deposits unaffected. The only archaeological feature identified was the red brick foundations of the Grade I listed Eton College Chapel. These foundations were only revealed to the first brick course and following recording, were left undisturbed and reburied. Based on the results of the trials holes and their recorded impacts, the main phase of resurfacing of the courtyard is unlikely to impact upon archaeological deposits. |
