Abstract: |
Wessex Archaeology was commissioned by Aspire Defence Capital Works to undertake an archaeological watching brief during groundwork to construct a car park extension at Larkhill Camp. The area lay on the northern perimeter of the Stonehenge World Heritage Site and is known to have produced traces of prehistoric occupation. The watching brief demonstrated that only a thin strip of undisturbed natural Chalk remained along the north edge of the site, although this too may well have been reduced during the construction of military buildings which formerly occupied the southern part of the site. These buildings were demolished sometime after 1959. It is concluded that the work for their construction removed or heavily truncated any archaeological features and deposits across most of the site. |
