Abstract:
Later Silbury Project (internal project no 5980; NHPP project no 3A4.306) Extensive geophysical surveys of the area around Silbury Hill were carried out in 2005-8 as part of the major project to conserve the Hill. Although the presence of a Roman settlement by the Hill had been known since the 19th century AD, the extent of the evidence in the field to its south was unexpected. The Later Silbury project was set up to evaluate the new results. In the late summer of 2010 seven evaluation trenches were excavated in the two fields south of the Hill. Part of an extensive Romano-British settlement consisting of large enclosures flanking a trackway was examined, as well as post-medieval water meadow features. Optically stimulated luminescence dates were obtained for a palaeochannel and alluvial deposits close to the Winterbourne. This report presents the site matrices and interpretive context index, to support the published report in the Wiltshire Archaeological and Natural History Magazine for 2013
