Abstract:		 CFA Archaeology Ltd carried out an archaeological evaluation on a proposed construction site on land north of Breach Lane at the north end of Bishopstoke, Hampshire (centred on SU 4665 1922). The Site is located on the east side of the River Itchen valley running from Southampton to Winchester. The evaluation area comprised a grass paddock 2.5ha in extent that had escaped damage by 20th century quarrying and was part of a larger proposed development. The work was carried out between the 7th and 10th of March 2016 for Prospect Archaeology on behalf of CEMEX and Bovis Homes Ltd. Twenty-three trenches were excavated revealing a late Iron-Age or early Roman rectilinear enclosure system on a north-east to south-west orientation located on sloping ground in the east, south and south-west parts of the Site. Pottery, burnt daub, burnt flint and slag present in some of the ditch fills suggest that there was industrial activity on the Site. A small furnace feature was exposed in one of the trenches but was left unexcavated. A large pit or ditch feature c. 5m wide and over a metre deep and was revealed in the south-east part of the site which is possibly related to the enclosure system. The west end of the Site had few features though a patch of scattered cremated human bone associated with a crushed late Gallo Belgic pot were exposed in one of the trenches. Little archaeology was present on the top of the hill except for a few post holes forming no discernible pattern and pits from recent quarry activity.
