| Abstract: |
John Moore Heritage Services carried out an archaeological watching brief at land between Oakfield and Downside in Kingston Lisle, Oxfordshire. Groundwork consisted of the excavation of foundation trenches for four semidetached dwellings. No archaeological features or finds related to the neighbouring possible Roman barrow were encountered during the watching brief. All features encountered during the fieldwork were late 19th and 20th century in date. The earliest features were two land drains built of short-length ceramic pipes related to agricultural use of the area presumably up to 1920s. The following activities on the site were represented by a rubble yard surface, footpath, and a water supply system that were related probably with the post Second World War Polish resettlement camp shown on 1959 and 1960 OS maps (Fig.1, 3). The last stage was represented by remains of 1970s barn dismantled prior the new development and driveway. |
