Abstract:		 Wessex Archaeology was commissioned by David Wilson Homes to carry out an archaeological watching brief on land south of Newbury racecourse at Newbury Racecourse, Newbury, West Berkshire, in advance of construction of a clubhouse associated with the golf course. The Site is centred on National Grid Reference (NGR) 449055, 165910. The watching brief identified and confirmed the presence of low level later prehistoric activity in this area. The Iron Age ditch has confirmed part of the field system identified on the surface as crop marks and characterised during previous archaeological investigation. The results also confirm that the main archaeological activity extended to the south and east of the site in accordance with the visible crop marks. Romano-British and late Saxon residual finds from the tertiary fill of a ditch may suggest a later use of this land.
