Abstract:		 Wessex Archaeology was commissioned by Galliford Try Building - London and South East Commercial to undertake an archaeological trial trench evaluation on land at Chesil Street Car Park, Barfield Close, Winchester, Hampshire (centred on NGR 448700 129050). Planning consent has been granted by Winchester City Council (ref.14/02534/FUL) for the construction of an Extra Care Scheme for older persons within the Site. A condition attached to the consent required a programme of archaeological mitigation, including initial phase of archaeological evaluation. Four trenches (20 m x 2 m) were excavated within the site. These confirmed that although evidence of truncation and modern disturbance was apparent, a number of archaeological features survived within the site. The fieldwork was carried out from 22nd to 24th February 2016. Evidence of truncation and modern disturbance was apparent, however, a number of archaeological features were identified indicating that there is still an archaeological potential within the Site. A single struck flint flake indicates potential prehistoric activity in the vicinity, although this artefact was found as residual material in a later context. Despite the position of the Site outside the Roman walled town, significant amounts of residual Romano-British finds as well as a possible Romano-British rubbish pit suggest activity in this area at this time. A substantial medieval ditch was identified, its north-west - south-east alignment suggesting a possible substantial enclosure perpendicular to the course of Chesil Street. Further possible medieval features were within the northern part of the Site, including a possible early medieval pit.
