Abstract: |
An audit was undertaken of the archaeological archive resulting from rescue excavations undertaken at Redhill in 1972-3, which were led by David Browne, and focussed on the area of the fort. The audit was particularly prompted by more recent, development-led, commercial excavation in 2011/13 in the same general area as the 1972-3 work, and which produced significant structural and artefactual evidence relating to both the early fort phase and the civilian settlement, but primarily the latter. One aim of the audit was to enhance the results of the more recent fieldwork, allowing features excavated by David Browne to be integrated with those recorded in the subsequent work, so that a more full account could be given of those major features encountered in the course of excavating both sites. The audit process involved the summary examination of the scope, quantity and quality of the 1972-3 site archive, including the extent and quality of post-fieldwork conservation, analysis, and reporting done over an extended period. The report makes a summary case for future analysis and publication, proportionate to the undoubted regional significance of this site. |
