Abstract: |
Wessex Archaeology was commissioned on behalf of Sims and Co. (Builders) Ltd to carry out an archaeological evaluation on land located at Willow Drive, Durrington, Wiltshire. The proposed development comprises the construction of two new houses with garages and access to Willow Drive. The Site is currently a small vacant plot formerly used as a builder yard and now rough grassland which is located within an area known to contain significant early and later prehistoric and Romano-British remains. No archaeological features or deposits were identified during the fieldwork, although two pieces of struck flint of a likely Neolithic date were recovered, together with modern material, from below a buried topsoil layer, sealed by made ground deposits. The type of recovered material is consistent with the known However, the quantity of these artefactual remains was so limited that the presence of further archaeological remains within the site itself is considered to be unlikely. |
