Abstract:
Wessex Archaeology was commissioned by BSA Heritage on behalf of Bovis Homes (South-West) and Catesby Property Group plc to undertake an archaeological evaluation at the Site. The evaluation comprised the excavation of 23 trial trenches and targeted the results of a geophysical survey. The majority of archaeological features correspond to former field boundaries that are likely to date to the post-medieval period. The evaluation was successful in clarifying the nature of a set of geophysical survey anomalies in Trench 14 as likely to be evidence of post-medieval quarrying. The evaluation was able to confirm the presence of a potential ring ditch in Trench 11, through the excavation of two ditches set c.7m apart. However, no dateable material was recovered from the fills of the ditches and no internal features were present between the two features, which may have helped to clarify the nature and use of the ring ditch. Within Trench 3 the evaluation was able to establish the presence of a series of ditches and features that corresponded to the geophysical survey and may form part of a ditched enclosure. It is possible that these features could date to the prehistoric period although equally given their location immediately to the south of the Binhamy Castle scheduled monument their use and or function may be related to the monument and date to the medieval period. The siting of the possible enclosure may have also been dictated by its location on an upward slope immediately to the north of the line of a possible Palaeochannel/watercourse, which was clearly visible as a landscape feature and was also recorded in three of the evaluation trenches
