Abstract: |
This report presents the findings of an archaeological evaluation undertaken by Foundations Archaeology on the 15th and 16th August 2016 on land adjacent to Southcliffe Road, Market Lavington, Wiltshire (NGR: SU 020 541 centred). The project was commissioned by the landowner, Joanna Chandler. The evaluation works comprised the excavation of four 30m and one 20m trench within the development area. The presence of intact subsoils within the majority of the trenches would suggest good preservation conditions for any potential archaeological deposits within the site. However, the results of this evaluation would indicate a low potential within the development area for archaeological activity. The presence of 11th to 14th century pottery within the subsoil of Trench 4 was most likely the result of manuring practices rather than evidence of nearby settlement activity. |
