Abstract: |
The evaluation was commissioned to support an outline planning application which has been submitted to Wokingham Borough Council, for a residential development of up to 40 dwellings. The evaluation entailed the excavation of 5 trenches within the proposed plot, which measured 30m by 1.80m. The evaluation uncovered limited evidence indicative of Mesolithic to early Neolithic activity in the form of flint artefacts and clear evidence of Iron Age activity in the form of archaeological features, deposits and artefacts, specifically pottery and waste indicative of iron smithing activity. Post-medieval remains in the form of land drains and subsoil was also identified. |
