Abstract:		 Wessex Archaeology was commissioned by AMEC Environment and Infrastructure UK Ltd, on behalf of The Crown Estate, to undertake an archaeological trial trench evaluation in advance of proposed residential development of land to the west of Salisbury Road, Marlborough, Wiltshire (National Grid Reference SU 19244 68087). The work forms part of a programme of archaeological investigations required to meet the terms requested by Wiltshire Council in support of an outline planning application. The investigation comprised nine machine excavated trial trenches. A small quantity of redeposited Neolithic/Bronze Age flint supports the previous indications of prehistoric activity on the Site, and a potential for such activity to be represented by features buried below the colluvium. The evaluation confirmed that the cluster of Iron Age features continue to the south as suggested in the geophysical survey and earlier evaluation. Two pits, one a possible shaft, contained Early-Middle and Middle Iron Age pottery. Four ditches (including one terminal and one identified as middle Iron Age) were recorded. It was not possible to establish any coherent boundary or field systems from the data collected to date, though there is some evidence to suggest that the Iron Age cluster of features had an associated boundary.
