Abstract: |
John Moore Heritage Services carried out an archaeological evaluation comprising 18 test pits on land at Windsor Racecourse Marina to the north of Maidenhead Road, Windsor. Four of the test pits were excavated to the full depth of the underlying prehistoric riverbed; for health and safety reasons the rest of the trenches were only excavated to the top of the fluvial deposits of the former river channel. No evidence for gravel islands, human occupation or activity was present. The wall of the swimming pool associated with the former use of the marina complex - a holiday camp - was revealed as was evidence for an access track associated either with the holiday camp or more likely with the excavation of the marina. |
