Abstract: |
An archaeological evaluation was undertaken by Cotswold Archaeology in September 2016 on land at Rowborough Farm, South Marston, Swindon. Twenty three trenches were excavated across land at Rowborough Farm and the adjacent Roves Farm. The evaluation revealed evidence of prehistoric settlement activity in both areas, including clusters of pits and a cremation burial at Roves Farm and Bronze Age enclosures and a later prehistoric trackway at Rowborough Farm. Post-medieval and modern features comprising a boundary ditch, a refuse pit and building foundations were also identified at Roves Farm. |
