Abstract: |
Pre-Construct Archaeology Ltd (PCA) was appointed by CgMs Consulting to undertake an initial stage of archaeological evaluation of land off Winchester Road, Whitchurch, Hampshire. The Site is the subject of a development proposal, which is to comprise housing and associated works. The fieldwork comprised of the mechanical excavation of - trenches measuring 30m X2m and two separate mitigation areas, Stage 1 in the western area measured 900m², and Stage 2 in the eastern area measured 400m². The investigation was completed in keeping with the Written Scheme of Investigation and carried out between the June and August 2017. This report provides the result of the initial stage of the evaluation. The fieldwork in the western portion of the Site revealed a single early Saxon Sunken Featured Building, in Trench 65, previously located in the Trench 10 of the Evaluation, and a large medieval pit. The eastern part of the site revealed a number of discreet pre-historic features, with no obvious pattern or purpose. No other significant archaeological features, deposits or finds were observed. |
