Abstract:
An archaeological evaluation, consisting of a single 15m metre long x 1 metre wide trench, was undertaken in the grounds of High Trees, Winterbourne Earls, Wiltshire. The evaluation has established that the immediate area of the trench forms an artificial land surface built up sometime from the very late 19th century to mid-20th century and is represented by a sequence of imported deposits measuring up to 1.10m deep. The creation of this is prominently derived from the associated landscaping of the area prior to and during the construction of the present c.1950s detached property. Initially the original ground surface appears to have been partially truncated prior to being built up as evidenced by the lack of any historic subsoil/topsoil associated with the naturally derived colluvium and superficial substrata. The initial imported layers consist of slight bands of consolidation possibly used, in part, as primary levelling with subsequent deposits appearing to be part derived from late 19th/ early 20th century waste material forming the present 0.55m thick horticultural/garden subsoil. No evidence for premodern activity was encountered during the evaluation.
