Abstract:		 This document represents an investigation of the potential for archaeological remains on land at Luton Lye House, Savernake (NGR SU 22695 67048), by John Moore Heritage Services. There is evidence of pre-Medieval settlement from across the Savernake Forest, with sporadic activity from the Palaeolithic and Neolithic, with more increased activity for the Bronze Age, Iron Age and Roman periods. Much of this activity is located away from the site and will be little affected by this development, there are, however, two features: a possible Iron Age religious complex and a Roman road, and potentially any satellite activity to these may lie across the site. In the medieval period the land became designated as Forest, a king's hunting land, subsequently little evidence of occupation would be found in the area until the post-medieval period, when the area was developed as a parkland. The parkland was subsequently listed. In the Second World War the area was used for military activity, including the storage of ammunition. The north and south part of the property are marked as being associated with this activity and it may be that the earthworks in the north of the property are directly a result of this. Undated quarrying is suspected to the south of the house. The house is of two phases and architecturally is of little merit.
