Abstract:
The fieldwork comprised the excavation of nine trenches. The trench and context numbering sequence continues that of the previous evaluation. Trenches 30 to 36 were 20m long and 1.6m wide, while Trenches 37 and 38 were 6.4m long and 5m wide. Trenches were set out on OS National Grid (NGR) co-ordinates using Leica GPS and surveyed in accordance with CA Technical Manual 4 Survey Manual (2012). An additional stage of archaeological evaluation was undertaken by Cotswold Archaeology in October 2013 at Kingston Farm, Bradford-on-Avon, Wiltshire. Nine trenches were excavated, supplemental to a preceding evaluation undertaken in March 2012. The additional evaluation revealed three segments of ditch, and three pits, of late prehistoric, probably Late Bronze/Early Iron Age, date. The ditch segments correspond with linear anomalies identified within the geophysical survey which may represent the northern arm of a square enclosure, its alignment possibly modified slightly over time. The three pits lay within the eastern half of the putative enclosure. The results of this and the previous evaluation, together with the presence of two loom weights within one of the pits and a relatively large assemblage of late prehistoric pottery, suggest the presence of a late prehistoric agricultural settlement.
