Abstract:
Wessex Archaeology was commissioned by the Pegasus Planning Group, acting on behalf of their client, Persimmon Homes, to undertake an archaeological trial trench evaluation on land prosed for a new cemetery site, north of the Avenue, at Fugglestone Red. The archaeological evaluation comprised the excavation of 8 no 50m x 2m trial trenches providing a 4% sample of the 2.01 hectare footprint of the site. Only two archaeological features were identified within two of the excavated trenches, with six of the trenches being archaeologically sterile. Of the two identified archaeological features, one of these, a possible gully in Trench 79, was somewhat ephemeral and remained undated. A spread of material within a shallow cut feature in Trench 80 contained a dark black-brown fill, possibly some form of industrial waste, which contained a small quantity of Romano-British pottery that may be indicative of activity in the immediate vicinity. Although there is a lack of any further archaeological features in the remaining six trenches and only a rather ephemeral gully in Trench 79, the evidence of Romano-British activity from Trench 80 may warrant further investigation in order to establish the nature of the activity. This would indicate whether the spread of material is an isolated incident or whether there is wider archaeological evidence that has not been demonstrated in the evaluation trenches
