Time Team - Hooke Court, Hooke, Dorset - Archaeological Evaluation and Assessment of the Results
Published: 2006-12-01
Subjects: Medieval Structure, Post-Medieval Artefacts, Post-Medieval Structure
The results of the evaluation demonstrated that the surviving west wing and the now demolished north wing had their origins in the 14th or 15th century and had seen much alteration including major building works in the 17th century. Analysis of the photographic and map evidence showed that the original access to the moated complex was through a gatehouse in the northern range. A blocked archway [...]
Time Team - Shorncliffe Redoubt, Sir John Moore Barracks, Shorncliffe, Folkestone, Kent - Archaeological Evaluation and Assessment of the Results
Published: 2006-11-01
Subjects: Military Artefacts, Post-Medieval Defences, Post-Medieval Structure
The project was largely unsuccessful in the identification of structures dated to the Napoleonic period within the redoubt. It became clear that the Twiss maps were a combination of ‘as built’ and ‘as proposed’ and therefore many of the structures depicted may never have been constructed. It was, however, clear that the main redoubt structure comprising earthen ramparts matches the Twiss maps, [...]

Defence Estates, Durrington, Wiltshire - Report on Archaeological Field Evaluation
Published: 2006-09-01
Subjects: Iron Age Settlement, Romano-British Settlement
Archaeological features were found in five of the trenches, in the north of the Site, two of these trenches were located in a paddock, the other three were located to the north of the trackway bisecting the field to the rear of the Red House. The recorded features consisted of pits and ditches primarily of Iron Age and Romano-British date. The same area of the Site was found to contain [...]
184-186 Fleet Street, City of London EC4 - Archaeological Desk-Based Assessment
Published: 2006-09-01
Subjects: Desk-Based Assessment
The main archaeological issues directly concerning the site are: i) The position of the site directly overlying the line of a possible Romano- British/Saxon road. Observations made by Stow in 1595 record the line of a street on the north side of Fleet Street immediately west of St. Dunstan’s. A continuation of this line would run directly through the present development site. ii) The [...]
Defence Estates, Durrington, Wiltshire - Report of Archaeological Field Evaluation
Published: 2006-09-01
Subjects: Iron Age Structure, Romano-British Structure
Twelve trenches were excavated, varying between four and thirty metres long. Archaeological features were found in five of the trenches, in the north of the Site, two of these trenches were located in a paddock, the other three were located to the north of the trackway bisecting the field to the rear of the Red House. The recorded features consisted of pits and ditches primarily of Iron Age and [...]
Land at Coldharbour Road / Wrotham Road, Gravesend, Kent - Archaeological Desk-Based Assessment
Published: 2006-07-01
Subjects: Desk-Based Assessment
Overall, a moderate to high potential has been identified for the existence and survival of archaeological deposits within the Study Area. There is no known recorded archaeology within the Site footprint, but this is probably due to the Site having been under arable cultivation prior to the mid 19th century through to today. Predicted archaeology on the Site is likely to be limited to evidence of [...]
Fulston Manor, Sittingbourne, Kent - Assessment of the Result of the Excavation of a Small Medieval Farmstead
Published: 2006-06-01
Subjects: Medieval Agriculture, Medieval Artefacts, Medieval Structure, Post-Medieval Artefacts, Romano-British Artefacts
The subsequent excavation confirmed the presence of archaeological features and deposits representing the remains of a small medieval farmstead established, used and abandoned between the 11th and early 14th centuries. Excavated features included a double ditched enclosure, a number of structures, a kiln and a number of pits. An assemblage of medieval pottery was recovered, along with other finds [...]
Time Team - Withington, Gloucestershire - Archaeological Evaluation and Assessment of the Results
Published: 2006-05-01
Subjects: Romano-British Artefacts, Romano-British Structure, Roman Villa
The evaluation concentrated on three areas of investigation: Site A (Manor Court Field), where a local archaeologist had recovered Romano-British finds from molehills; Site B, the Scheduled Ancient Monument of Withington Villa (SM GC200), a complex potentially dating from the 2nd - 4th centuries AD, first excavated in 1811; and Site C, an area between Sites A and B, the site of a spring and [...]
Kensington Palace Hotel, Kensington Road, Royal Borough of Kensington and Chelsea - Archaeological Desk-Based Assessment
Published: 2006-05-01
Subjects: Desk-Based Assessment
There is archaeological evidence from the early Mesolithic through to the Iron Age within the Study Area with a prehistoric site recorded at Vicarage House, Vicarage Gate to the north west of the Site. Other prehistoric finds have been recorded from the Study Area. Communication links, in the form of roads, were constructed probably from the Iron Age period with the line of Akeman Street running [...]
Argenta House, Argenta Way, NW10 London, Borough of Brent - Archaeological Desk-Based Assessment
Published: 2006-05-01
Subjects: Desk-Based Assessment
The Study Area contains minimal archaeological evidence for any period and it is unlikely that there was any significant human activity on the Site before the Postmedieval period. The most significant events within the Study Area have been the construction of major communications and transport routes: the Grand Union Canal (1805), the London and North Western Railway (1846) and the North Circular [...]
HMS/m A1, Bracklesham Bay - Designated Site Assessment
Published: 2006-04-01
Subjects: Marine Archaeology, Wreck Site
Diving investigations concentrated on an assessment of the wreck itself, supported by a photographic and video survey. A measured plan of the remains was produced. Two anomalies close to the site were also investigated, with one proving to be a corroded metal buoy and the other being a metal object of unknown function but not considered to be a part of the vessel. The hull structure was [...]
Time Team - Alfoldean, Slinfold, West Sussex - Archaeological Evaluation and Assessment of Results
Published: 2006-04-01
Subjects: Romano-British Agriculture, Romano-British Structure, Roman Road
The evaluation comprised an extensive geophysical survey and six trenches. The geophysical survey successfully plotted the outline of the bank and ditch enclosure surrounding the mansio complex, some of the mansio walls, and elements of the strip settlement including field systems, trackways, pits and areas of possible industrial activity. Ditches and trackways were largely aligned on Stane [...]
Time Team - Arkwright's Mill, NCP Car Park, Miller Street, Manchester - Archaeological Evaluation and Assessment of Results
Published: 2006-04-01
Subjects: Modern Structure, Post-Medieval Industry, Post-Medieval Structure
The primary aim of the evaluation was to identify the position of the original mill and the different phases of building and alterations which occurred during its lifetime, and to establish the position of major features such as the mill wheel pit. The project also aimed to investigate the nature of the housing which existed along the south side of Angel Street to the north of the mill [...]

Subjects: Bronze Age Artefacts, Bronze Age Ceremony, Bronze Age Enclosure, Bronze Age Settlement, Iron Age Artefacts, Iron Age Enclosure, Iron Age Settlement, Romano-British Artefacts
This was the second season of research excavation carried out on the site and comprised three small areas which are extensions to the earlier excavation areas. The excavation occurred between 5th – 20th September 2005. The results from the archaeological investigations at Home Field have highlighted the major period of activity being from the Late Bronze Age into the Middle Iron Age (11th - 7th [...]
