Abstract: |
Pre-Construct Archaeology Ltd (PCA) was appointed by the Environmental Dimension Partnership (EDP) to undertake a programme of archaeological evaluation on land at Chestnut Avenue, Stoneham, Eastleigh, Hampshire, ahead of building work. This report provides the results of an evaluation which comprised of 80, 50m X 2m trenches opened between 26th June - 22nd August 2017. The evaluation was completed largely in keeping with the Written Scheme of Investigation. The evaluation has demonstrated that areas of the site contain archaeological remains dating to four separate time periods, iron age, Roman, Medieval and post medieval periods. Fields 1, 4, 7 and 8 contained no significant archaeological resources. Pre-historic features were identified, and are thought to represent two separate phases of prehistoric activity on the site, early and late iron age. Two Roman pits were identified during the evaluation to the south of the site, and are thought to be associated with the roman road that may run through the site from Bittern to Winchester. Medieval features were identified during the evaluation to the south of the site, they are thought to represent evidence of the former medieval village of North Stoneham. Finally, post medieval features were identified and investigated and are not thought to represent significant archaeological resources. |
