Abstract: |
Wessex Archaeology was commissioned by Wiltshire Council to undertake an archaeological evaluation on land at Sparrow Street, Southview Park, Trowbridge, Wiltshire. The evaluation was undertaken in two phases and comprised of eight trenches. This report provides a combined report on both phases the earlier covering Parcels 2 and 3 (fieldwork undertaken between 13th and 14th March 2017), and the most recent phase covering Parcels 4 and 6 (fieldwork undertaken between 29th October and 2nd November 2018). No significant archaeological features or deposits were recorded in any of the four land parcels. In two of the parcels it was noted that the natural soil sequence had been truncated and then built-up with made ground, which was due to the parcels being used a construction compounds. In this instance it is demonstrated that, despite the presence of an earlier construction compound were significant archaeological to be present, these were likely to have survived and retain their significance. This archaeological evaluation has effectively demonstrated a low potential for the presence of significant archaeological features or deposits which may be adversely affected by the proposed construction works, and is in fulfilment of Condition 13 of the planning permission, and in accordance with the approved written scheme of investigation. |
