Abstract:
Wessex Archaeology was commissioned by White Young Green to undertake a programme of preliminary survey and sample excavation at V (Victor) crossing hard-standing, following the identification of a previously unknown round barrow during a watching brief of works to upgrade the hard-standing area. Following an initial survey it was decided in consultation between WYG and Wiltshire Council that a strategy of sample excavation should be conducted at the site. This would aim to determine an approximate date for the monument and inform on its specific nature, while minimising any further impact to the monument. The archaeological fieldwork was undertaken on the 25th September, and between 15th October and the 1st November 2012. A total of 11 cremation burials were identified within the monument, with additional burials likely to be present in the uninvestigated central and northern parts of the monument. The excavation of the barrow ditch identified multiple inhumation burials, cutting its lower fills. Artefactual evidence from these depositions and the ditch, indicate a Neolithic to Late Bronze Age date range, although, further analysis including selective radiocarbon dating should help clarify this.
