Abstract:		 Wessex Archaeology was commissioned by CgMs Consulting Limited to carry out an archaeological evaluation on land at 44-50 Bedwin Street, Salisbury, centred on National Grid Reference SU 14711 30270. The site is at present under consideration for a potential planning application for a mixed use, residential-led development. The fieldwork comprised the machine excavation and recording of two trenches measuring 20m x 2m and 10m x 1.5m. Evidence for medieval and post-medieval activity was found on the site in the course of the evaluation. Natural geology exposed in test pits excavated in each trench comprised river terrace gravel. The earliest phase of activity within the site appears to be related to rubbish and cess pits dated to the 13th and early 14th century. Three pits partially exposed in Trench 1 are thought to have been refuse pits as they were infilled with deliberate backfills of domestic waste. The excavated pit in Trench 2 contained cess deposit, indicating the feature might have functioned as a cess pit. The finds recovered from the pits comprised 13th or early 14th century pottery, roof tiles, animal bone and marine shell. The post-medieval phase of the development within the site comprises structural remains of a building fronting onto Salt Lane. Buildings at this location are recorded from 17th century onwards; however the remains likely represent a later phase illustrated on the 1881 First Edition Ordnance Survey map. To the north of the building, remains of yard surfaces and outhouses or boundary walls were also recorded.
