Abstract:
Allen Archaeology Limited was commissioned by Hochtief Construction Limited to undertake archaeological monitoring and recording of groundworks during construction of a of a new road and flyover at the existing level crossing at Ufton Nervet, Urton Lane, Berkshire. The site lies in an area of significant archaeological potential, with predictive modelling indicating the potential for prehistoric deposits within the southeast of the site. In the wider area, a Mesolithic encampment was identified at Ufton Green, while a concentration of probable Neolithic and Bronze Age barrows is recorded near Victoria Lodge. Evidence of Roman rural occupation and Anglo-Saxon settlement activities have also been discovered in the region. No clear evidence of prehistoric human activity was found during the archaeological monitoring. A single piece of 16th-century pot was recovered from a pit, but none of the other features were datable. Two other artefacts of 16th and 17th-century date were identified from the topsoil. None of the features has significant archaeological value and the groundworks had a negligible impact on the archaeological resource.
