Abstract:
Borehole survey This report is a geoarchaeological assessment of strata sampled in six boreholes drilled at Highlands Farm, Henley-on-Thames, Oxfordshire. Bedrock of the White Chalk Subgroup was encountered at between 74.99m OD and 73.47m OD. Gravels of the Anglian Black Park Gravel Member overlay the bedrock and outcrop between 78.09m OD and 76.42m OD. Outside the old Quarry area the Black Park Gravel Member was recorded in five boreholes. Within the Quarry made ground overlay the Chalk in the sixth borehole. The thickness of the Gravel Member was between 2.3m and 3.7m. An area of maximum thickness is believed to lie south of the old Quarry. The Black Park Gravel Member is assessed as being of high archaeological potential and low palaeoenvironmental potential. No artefacts were recovered from the borehole cores.
