Abstract: |
An archaeological evaluation was undertaken by Cotswold Archaeology between August and September 2013 on Land at Crab Hill, Wantage, Oxfordshire. Sixty eight trenches were excavated. The Phase 2 evaluation has identified archaeological features throughout the proposed development area spanning the period between the Late Bronze Age and the post-medieval period. The results of the latest phase of investigation have also corroborated and augmented the findings of the Phase 1 evaluation, confirming two main concentrations of archaeological activity, dated mainly to the Early to Middle Iron Age, both located within the western part of the site. The latest phase of fieldwork has also substantiated the results of a preceding geophysical survey in indicating low-level background activity elsewhere within the site and also identifying a number of features, some substantial in size, that do not appear on the geophysical survey, including a possible boundary of Early to Middle Saxon date. |
