Abstract:		 An archaeological evaluation was undertaken by Pre-Construct Archaeology Ltd on land currently occupied by the Dolphin Retail Park, Southampton Road, Salisbury, Wiltshire, SP1 2LB The investigation was conducted in advance of the proposed redevelopment of the site, continuing its use as retail warehousing. The work was commissioned in response to an archaeological condition attached to the planning permission, involving the excavation of eight 3m square test pits, undertaken between the 18th - 27th November 2013. Only late post-medieval archaeological features and modern made-ground layers were encountered in the test pits. These were observed to overlay palaeo-environmental features; Alluvial deposits from flood events of the nearby River Bourne, and a possible palaeo-channel in Test pit 2 along with Peat deposits associated with palaeo wet-lands created by the River. The investigation revealed that the natural horizon had been horizontally truncated by post-medieval and modern layers of made ground, to an average depth of approximately 1m.
