Abstract: |
In March 2015 Wessex Archaeology was commissioned by Mr and Mrs Dexter (the Client) to undertake an archaeological watching brief on the proposed site of a new garage at 1 Church Cottages, Church Lane, Barkham, Berkshire, centred on Ordnance Survey National Grid Reference SU 78430 66353. A planning application (F/2013/1704) has been granted conditional consent by Wokingham Borough Council (the Local Planning Authority (LPA)) for the demolition of the existing detached double garage and erection of a detached double garage in a revised position. The site of the proposed garage is adjacent to the Grade II Listed Building, 1 Church Cottages and lies within a medieval moated enclosure which is a designated Scheduled Monument. The scheme will create a new garage located at an increased distance from the moat with improved access which is more sympathetically related to the adjacent Grade II listed cottage. The watching brief comprised the below ground excavation of the footings for the footprint of the new garage. The footings were excavated to a depth of 1.2m. The watching did not reveal any archaeological features and the only archaeological material found was modern ceramic building material from within the topsoil. |
