Description

A programme of systematic surface collection and evaluative excavation has provided important new insight into Iron Age and Romano-British settlement and its associated agricultural economy on the chalk lands of the Eastern Range of the Salisbury Plain (Military) Training Area, central southern England.  Focusing on two sample areas, amounting to 34km of the chalk lands between the Avon Valley (Wiltshire) and the ridge east of the Bourne Valley extending into north-west Hampshire. the project included sample excavations on eight Iron Age enclosures, three sets of field systems and, more extensively, on the Iron Age, Romano-British and early Anglo-Saxon settlement at Coombe Down and the Romano-British linear village settlement of Chisenbury Warren.
