Abstract: |
John Moore Heritage Services carried out an archaeological watching brief at Land at Post Office Lane Wantage, Oxfordshire. A linear ditch feature and four possible linear features were recorded. The former may have been 19th or 20th century in construction. The ditch was revealed in section and in some part in plan in the east of the site cut in a NNE_SSW direction. Its full length to the south was not revealed in plan but it probably terminated before the southern limit of the excavation. The latter features were identified during the excavation of the garage foundations and included one late post-medieval ditch and three others that were undated. The features were mostly identified in section and the full extent of their lengths from west to east was not revealed in plan. The eastern side of the site revealed a large number of modern service trenches cutting the site and no other archaeological features were identified. |
