Abstract:		 Wessex Archaeology was commissioned by Taylor Wimpey Oxfordshire to undertake an archaeological trial trench evaluation on a 8.56ha block of land, north of Grove Road, Harwell, Oxfordshire, centred on National Grid Reference (NGR) SU 4890 8970. The results of the evaluation appear to indicate that the Phase 2 area contains a relative low potential for late prehistoric and Romano-British archaeological features. Although there is some evidence that the former Romano-British field system may have extended into the Phase 2 area from the Phase 1 area, these features have been heavily impacted by later medieval, post-medieval and agricultural activity. Significantly, no evidence was found for possible late prehistoric and Romano-British settlement features within the Phase 2 area, strongly suggesting that the present Grove Road may form the boundary of the northern extent of early settlement activity. The majority of the identified archaeological features were indicative of medieval and post-medieval agricultural activity, in particular ridge and furrow ploughing.
