Abstract: |
Wessex Archaeology (WA) was commissioned by Utility Consulting (the Consultant), on behalf of UK Power Networks (the Client), to undertake an archaeological watching brief during development at Bulford Barracks, Bulford, Salisbury centred on National Grid Reference (NGR) SU 19308, 43789. Planning consent (S/12/0378/FULL) has been granted for the removal of an existing substation and erection of a replacement electricity substation by Wiltshire Council on condition (Condition 3) that a programme of archaeological work was undertaken. The Assistant County Archaeologist confirmed the work should comprise an archaeological watching brief during the initial excavations to record anything of archaeological interest. The watching brief was maintained during excavation of basements and an access road for the electricity substation during July 2013. Observations revealed c.1.65m of made ground deposits formed during the earlier construction of a deeply terraced sports field, the lower c. 0.15m of which remained undisturbed beneath the base of the construction. No significant archaeological remains or pre-modern formation were revealed and no artefacts were recovered during the excavations. |
