Abstract: |
Wessex Archaeology was commissioned by PKA architects, on behalf of Dr and Miss Siggers, to carry out an archaeological watching brief on land at 26 Northgate Gardens Devizes, Wiltshire, centred on National Grid Reference 400115 161530. The watching brief forms part of the archaeological mitigation required to fulfil a planning condition attached to two overlapping planning applications 18/00800/FUL and 18/00786/FUL, for the development of a total of four residential properties. The watching brief monitored all the mechanical excavations within the proposed development area. The watching brief was successful in locating and excavating a large medieval ditch, initially identified in an archaeological trial trench evaluation conducted by Wessex Archaeology in 2017. The size and date of the deposits make it probable that this ditch is part of the12th century inner castle ditch. The watching brief was carried out over a number of days between 30th April and 5th May 2018. |
