Abstract:		 Wessex Archaeology was commissioned by AMEC Entec (the Client) to undertake an archaeological evaluation on land at Bromham, Wiltshire located at National Grid Reference (NGR) ST 96535 65367. This archaeological evaluation comprised of six trenches (6No 25mx1.6m) and follows a recent geophysical survey (Archaeological Surveys Ltd 2011) which identified a number of archaeological anomalies. The fieldwork was undertaken between Wednesday the 4th May 2011 and Thursday the 5th May 2011. The evaluation revealed a substantial amount of Romano-British archaeology consisting of pits containing waste material from iron smelting, boundary ditches, a possible well and part of a substantial wall. Archaeological features were revealed in all of the six trenches excavated and confirmed that the geophysical anomalies were in most cases archaeological features. The volume and the complexity of the archaeology found and its potential significance meant that a strategy of minimal intrusion was adopted with only a small percentage of features investigated ahead of likely further mitigation in the event of planning permission being sought. The results of the evaluation suggest that the Site has the potential to contain evidence for Romano-British industrial activity throughout the southern end of the Site although industrial activity was plausibly evidenced additionally in the northern section. The wall in the northern end of Site may idicate the remains of a building. The industrial nature of the features and the close proximity to the Roman town of Verlucio gives it the potential to contribute to our knowledge of the Romano-British period in north Wiltshire. On completion of the fieldwork consultation with the Client and Wiltshire County Council was undertaken during a site meeting, it was concluded that mitigation would be required prior to development of the Site. This is likely to take the form of a programme of strip, map and record.
