Abstract:
An archaeological field evaluation by trial trenching was undertaken on land north and south of School Street, Wolston, Warwickshire (SP 4128 7472, centre) by the University of Leicester Archaeological Services (ULAS) between 4th-7th May 2010 and 20th-29th September 2010 for Nexus Heritage. Positive results were obtained from three of the four targeted trenches in Area 1 (north of School Street) mostly confirming the presence of archaeological features previously suggested by the geophysical anomalies. The clearest anomaly consisted of a curvi-linear ditch enclosing activity dating to the Mid-Late Iron Age against the north-western site boundary. It is possible that these features could be associated with known cropmarks to the northwest of the site. Elsewhere, several features were also identified that had not been previously detected by the geophysical survey. These included further Mid-Late Iron Age activity towards the southern boundary and a possible Early Roman enclosure towards the centre of the site. Further undated features were also recorded. To the north of the site a possible back-filled pond was recorded with associated hollowed brick drains leading to it. The trenches excavated in Area 2 (south of School Street) produced limited results with only one possible undated feature recorded.
