Abstract:
Wessex Archaeology was commissioned by Druids Lodge Polo Club to undertake an archaeological excavation and watching brief in advance of and during development on land at Druid's Lodge Polo Club, near Salisbury, Wiltshire, centred on NGR SU 09525 39260. The fieldwork was the final stage of a programme of archaeological investigation and was a condition of the planning permission granted for the construction of two new polo pitches on the site. In consultation with the Assistant County Archaeologist at Wiltshire Council, the archaeological mitigation comprised three targeted areas of excavation and a watching brief. Area 1 was excavated over a length of trackway and a later sub-square mortuary enclosure. A single burial, located at the centre of the enclosure, was dated to the later Romano-British period. Area 2 targeted an area of intercutting trackways and linear features, which were dated to the Romano-British period and were related to the north-western enclosure. Area 3 was located in close proximity to the north-western enclosure, and investigated a complex area of intercutting pits and a linear ditch. The watching brief undertaken during major ground reduction for the new polo pitches revealed three inhumation graves of prehistoric date, and a Romano-British un-urned cremation located to the east of Area 3.
