Abstract: |
Archaeology South-East was commissioned by CgMs Consulting Ltd. to carry out an archaeological evaluation on land off Coldeast Way, Park Gate, Fareham, Hampshire, in advance of the residential development of the site. A total of thirteen evaluation trenches were excavated. All trenches excavated revealed a similar sequence wherein Quaternary riverine deposits of firm mid yellow-brown/ orange-brown sand silt clay with frequent bands of gravel were overlain by a deposit of soft dark brown sand clay silt topsoil. The undisturbed natural geology was encountered at depths of between 48.77m AOD in the north-west corner of the site and 45.05m AOD in the south-east corner. All thirteen of the excavated trenches were devoid of archaeological finds and features. Extensive truncation from modern services was evident across the area and contamination from modern levelling deposits was visible across much of the southern half of the site. |
