Abstract:
John Moore Heritage Services carried out an evaluation on behalf of Mr M Nightingale in advance of a planning application for the construction of two dwellings on land at 4 Oxford Road, Eynsham, Oxfordshire. The work was carried on the 4th and 5th of February 2015.The evaluation comprised three trenches, totalling 32m, placed within the footprint of the proposed dwellings. The evaluation identified a substantial ditch, some 2.2m deep, in Trench 1 which probably represented the northern boundary to the medieval Eynsham Abbey grounds. Evidence of Mesolithic activity in the form of two worked flints was recovered from Trench 2. Additionally a ditch, shallow parallel features and a gully of possible Roman date were identified in this trench. Trench 3 revealed a gully and a number of tree holes indicating extensive tree clearance prior to landscaping. Deposits identified in Trenches 2 and 3 appear to be imported soil to raise the ground level and landscaping to form the current garden.
