Abstract: |
Archaeological evaluation comprising a 1.5m X 1.5m by 0.7m deep test pit against the east elevation of the property revealed its foundation at 0.5m and otherwise modern deposits abutting dating from the construction of the house in the 1990's. The test pit demonstrated the absence of archaeology at the depth required for the foundations of a proposed small extension to the house, which lies within the Scheduled Monument Winchester Castle. The evaluation comprised the excavation of a 1.5m X 1.5m and 0.7m deep test pit was carried out on the 9th and 10th of December 2020. The test pit was formed as proposed and revealed modern deposits throughout. The modern deposits and the depth at which they were recorded is consistent with the location of the site, and the proposed extension, south of the line of the Castle Wall and above the sloped face of the Castle mound earthwork. |
