Abstract: |
Pre-Construct Archaeology Ltd. (PCA) was commissioned by Limewood-Builders Ltd. on behalf of Mr Sam Gee (the Client) to undertake an archaeological watching brief at the 6 Bassett Green Village, Bassett, Southampton. The watching brief was carried out on 13 - 14 October 2016 and observed the machine excavation of a trench measuring broadly 5.8m x 4.4m for the construction of an extension at the rear of the property. The groundworks exposed three site layers within the trench: a topsoil, a subsoil and natural geological deposits. A modern service pipe associated with an earlier 1970s extension to the cottage was observed cutting the subsoil and natural; no archaeological features were observed. Two sherds of Late 18th century Verwood pottery were retrieved from the topsoil which is broadly consistent with the historical date of the earliest known development of the site. |
