Abstract: |
This projects is an investigation of the potential for archaeological remains on land to the south of Highworth Road, Faringdon, Oxfordshire (NGR SU 27903 94777). Historically Faringdon was located in Berkshire, and is an ancient parish. Mesolithic to Bronze Age archaeology occurs sporadically in the search area, it is considered to be a low to moderate possibility that any features or finds of this date are recovered on our present knowledge. There is a moderate to high chance of Iron Age or Roman archaeology being detected as features of this date, including a Roman shrine, have been located to the southeast of the proposal site. Such sites are important heritage and cultural sites. The activity appears to be located along the spine of a ridge, which runs through the proposal site from the southeast to the northwest. There is a low chance of there being any medieval or post-medieval archaeology other than agricultural furrows. |
