Wessex Archaeology

Abstract

No archaeological features were observed during the works, though some burnt flint and struck flint was recovered, suggestive of a background of early land use within the site and the surrounding area. Fluvial deposits with a distinctive iron-rich clay were recorded on an approximate south-east to north-west alignment and may pertain to a palaeochannel traversing the site. The lack of archaeological evidence observed during the AMR is likely due to the limited depth of groundworks with the potential for any surviving archaeological footprint to have remained in situ.
