title: Images and GIS from an Archaeological Evaluation at Parsonage Road, Takeley, Essex 2022

description: This collection comprises images and GIS data from an archaeological evaluation carried out by Cotswold Archaeology on land west of Parsonage Road, Takeley Essex. The work took place in March 2022, at the request of Pegasus Group acting on behalf of Stonebond Properties (Chelmsford) Ltd. A total of 37 trenches were excavated across the site. A total of thirty-three ditches, four pits and a possible posthole were exposed within the western portion of the site, broadly matching the results of a previous geophysical survey. The majority of these features were mid to late Roman in date, ranging between the late 2nd to 4th centuries, comprising a large enclosure with further field boundaries extending to the south. The finds assemblage suggests the presence in the immediate vicinity of a small rural farmstead-type settlement, with mostly locally produced domestic coarseware pottery having been recovered as well as limited evidence of regional and imported vessels.

title: Digital Data from an Evaluation at Alban Mann Land, Bell Plantation Garden Centre, Towcester, Northampstonshire 2022

description: This collection comprises images and GIS data from an archaeological evaluation carried out by Cotswold Archaeology on the Alban Mann land at Bell Plantation Garden Centre, Towcester, Northamptonshire. The work took place between March and April 2022 as part of a planning requirement. A total of twelve trenches were excavated across the proposed development site, targeting anomalies identified by a preceding geophysical survey. A number of linear ditches and a scatter of apparently isolated small/medium sized pitswere encountered in the trenches. A human skull and several possible cremation vessels were also observed in the basal fill of a ditch in trench 12, most likely disturbed from elsewhere and discarded into the ditch.

title: Digital Data from an Archaeological Evaluation at Burford Grange, Bedford Road, Ickleford, Hertfordshire 2022

description: This collection comprises images and GIS data from an archaeological evaluation carried out by Cotswold Archaeology on land at Burford Grange, Bedford Road, Ickleford, Hertfordshire. The work took place in July 2022 as part of a planning requirement.
A total of 20 out of the originally planned 21 trenches were excavated across the 2.7ha proposed development site but one trench could not be excavated due to site constraints.
The evaluation identified a large number of furrows, all aligned north-west/south-east, associated with medieval and/ or early postmedieval ridge and furrow cultivation. Several likely drainage ditches were also encountered during the evaluation, cut through the subsoil and matching the alignments of the furrows, with one ditch producing a single fragment of 18th to 20th century pottery and a fragment of ceramic building material.
Two other undated ditches, in Trenches 5 and 6, were aligned differently to the other features and appeared to be covered by the subsoil, possibly hinting at the presence of a separate field system predating the medieval/post-medieval ridge and furrow system. A single undated pit identified in Trench 21 is potentially the only feature on the Site not directly connected with agricultural activity. The date and function of the pit, which contained charcoal and burnt stones, remains unclear, with no finds or environmental evidence recovered.
Overall, the results of the evaluation suggest that the Site has formed part of a wider agricultural landscape since at least the medieval period and possibly beyond, with no evidence for domestic or other activity of any type or period.

title: Images and GIS from an Archaeological Evaluation at Stratford Road, Beachampton, Buckinghamshire, 2022

description: This digital archive contains images and GIS from an archaeological evaluation at Land North of Stratford Road, Buckinghamshire. The work was undertaken between late September and early October 2022, by Cotswold Archaeology. A total of 38 trenches were excavated across the 7.5ha site. Archaeological features exposed comprised a ditch and thirteen furrows, all of them concentrated in the north part of the site and associated with the previous agricultural cultivation of the area. A number of other possible features were investigated but all were shown to be the result of either geological variations or biological activity.

title: Images and GIS Data from an Archaeological Evaluation at Medebridge Solar, Fen Lane, and Medebridge Road, South Ockendon, Essex, 2022

description: This digital archive contains images and GIS data from an archaeological evaluation at Medebridge Solar, Fen Lane, and Medebridge Road, South Ockendon, Essex at the request of Planet Planning, acting on behalf of Medebridge Solar Ltd. The work was undertaken between May and June 2022, by Cotswold Archaeology. A total of 239 trenches were excavated across the development site. The results of the trial trenching partially confirmed those of a preceding geophysical survey, which identified a number of post-medieval and modern former boundary ditches. A modern drain system of plastic drainage pipes covered by layers of fired clay pellets was also identified.

description: This digital archive contains images, reports, site records, spreadsheets, CAD and database data from an archaeological excavation and watching brief, undertaken by Oxford Archaeology at the site of a mixed residential and commercial development at along the M1 Dway Junction 16, Weedon Road, Harpole, West Northamptonshire. The location was of particular significance for its proximity to a Roman villa that lies immediately adjacent to the north.The archaeological mitigation strategy comprised five excavation areas where buried features identified by a geophysical survey and trial-trench evaluation would be impacted by intrusive groundworks associated with the development. During the excavation it became apparent that archaeological features were being exposed by stripping within the preservation area between Areas 3 and 4, and consequently a watching brief was undertaken in this area.

title: Images from Archaeological Evaluation Trenching Work at Whinfield Solar Farm, County Durham, October to December 2022

description: This collection comprises images from archaeological evaluation trenching which was required prior to the construction of a solar farm at Whinfield Farm, County Durham. This work was undertaken by Pre-Construct Archaeology Ltd October to December 2022. The excavation of 193 2m by 30m trenches targeted anomalies identified in an earlier phase of archaeological excavation and apparent blank areas to provide a 4 percent sample of the proposed development area. The trial trenching evaluation uncovered no significant archaeological features or deposits. Five undated features were uncovered that comprised two pits, two gullies and a field boundary however as there was no dating evidence they are considered to be of low significance.

title: Digital Archive from an Archaeological Excavation at Daventry Apex Park, Northamptonshire, 2019

description: This archive contains images, reports, site records, database files and GIS from an archaeological excavation at Apex Park, Daventry, Northamptonshire. Oxford Archaeology was commissioned by RPS Consulting Services Ltd, on behalf of Prologis UK to undertake the work between 17th July 2019 and 31st August 2019. Previous geophysical surveys and evaluations established the presence of prehistoric remains including ring ditch. This excavation area targeted these remains. The excavation exposed the Neolithic/early Bronze Age c 16m diameter ring ditch, dated by late flint, and charcoal recovered from its lower fills. Abraded late Neolithic/early Bronze Age (Beaker), Bronze Age and Iron Age pottery from upper fills suggest use continued into the Iron Age. The ring ditch probably surrounded a barrow, though no primary burial was encountered a cremation burial recorded during the evaluation was radiocarbon dated to the middle Bronze Age.

title: Digital Archive from an Archaeological Evaluation at Above Hedges, Pitton, Wiltshire, April 2017

description: This digital archive contains, images, GIS, site records and a report from an Archaeological evaluation at Above Hedges, Pitton, Wiltshire. The work was undertaken by Oxford Archaeology (South) on 22nd April 2017. The evaluation consisted of a single trench measuring 20m by 1.8m which ran through the centre of the site in a NW-SE direction. The trench represented a c 2% sample of the development area, and it was positioned to investigate one of the linear features seen on the aerial photographs. The trench was dug by a mechanical excavator fitted with a toothless bucket in spits down to the first archaeological horizon. The exposed surface was sufficiently cleaned to establish the extent of the archaeological remains. Thereafter, excavation proceeded by hand using mattocks and trowels.

title: Images and Site Records from an Archaeological Evaluation at 330-336 London Road, High Wycombe, Buckinghamshire, 2001

description: This collection comprises images and site records from an archaeological evaluation undertaken by Network Archaeology Ltd at 330-336 London Road, High Wycombe, Buckinghamshire, 2001. The proposed development site is believed to be the location of Bowden Mill, a water mill with thirteenth century origins. There were two mills at the site from the eighteenth or nineteenth century until the late twentieth century. The evaluation successfully located buried remains of several post-medieval mill buildings and watercourses identified by the desk based assessment. The absence of any surviving medieval remains is probably due to the substantial post-medieval development of the site.

title: Digital Archive from an Archaeological Watching Brief and Strip Map and Sample at Wheelock Street, Middlewich, Cheshire February 2020 - June 2021

description: This digital archive contains images, site records and CAD from a scheme of archaeological works on land adjacent to Wheelock Street and Darlington Street, Middlewich, in accordance with a condition attached to the planning permission granted for a retirement living facility development (up to 50 apartments) on the site. The archaeological works included a strip, map and sample excavation (divided into three sections due to access issues) followed by a watching brief of the ground works associated with the development including stripping and excavations for foundations and services. The work was undertaken by Archaeological Research Services Ltd between 3rd February 2020 and 7th June 2021. The strip, map and sample excavation (Trenches 1a, b, c) and subsequent watching brief revealed the remains of three buildings on the corner of Wheelock Street and Darlington Street dating from the 19th century. The two buildings fronting Wheelock Street were represented by cellar rooms. They would have been two storey terrace houses with shops on the ground floor and probably lodgings above.

title: Digital Data from a Geophysical Survey at Little Hollacombe, Welcombe, Devon 2016

description: This collection comprises digital photographs, geophysics data and geo-referenced images from a geophysical survey by South West Archaeology Ltd on land at Little Hollacombe, Welcombe, Devon. The survey was carried out in December 2016 to inform potential future development.
The geophysical survey indicated the presence of a series of removed post medieval and modern boundaries that are associated with recent horse paddocks across the site. There were also frequent drainage ditches and possible land drains across the site that are associated with the enclosure of the land from the 19th century onward. The geophysical survey also indicated potential prehistoric activity in the form of an oval anomaly, a ring ditch, and discrete anomalies. The south-western quarter of the site had been completely truncated by the recent barn development and was not surveyed. The south-eastern quarter of the site had been disturbed by earthmoving that was associated with the barn development.

title: Images and Site Records from a Watching Brief at Magnolia House, Washford, Somerset, September 2022

description: This collection comprises images and scanned site records from an archaeological watching brief by Headland Archaeology at Magnolia House, Washford, Somerset. The watching brief took place between the 19th and 22nd September 2022 during groundworks associated with the construction of two new dwellings and the demolition of the existing Magnolia House.
The below-ground stratigraphy of the Site consisted of two recent pet burials cut into topsoil, a topsoil layer, a subsoil layer, and undisturbed geological deposits. No deposits were suitable for environmental sampling.
Eight structures relating to Washford Mill, which was established on the site by at least the 16th century, were identified: Walls [001], [002], [003], [006] and [012], Steps [005] and Niche [010]. Archaeological evidence and historic map regression demonstrate that Walls [002] and [003] were boundary walls; Wall [001] and [012], Steps [005] and Niche [010] were external features of the southern building of Washford Mill; and Wall [006] was an internal wall of the southern building of Washford Mill. Wall [009] formed part of the foundations of the late 19th century glasshouse erected next to the immediate south of the southern building of the mill. Wall [007] may also be of 19th century date. These structures are first shown together on mapping dating to the mid-19th century but may not have been built at the same time and could conceivably be as early as 16th century in date. However, on present evidence a 19th century date is thought most likely. Wall [008], concrete rainwater tank [004], and concrete surface (011) are thought most likely to have been constructed during or after the erection of Magnolia House, which occurred during the late 1960s or early 1970s.

title: Images from Historic Building Recording Work at Church Hall, Hall Street, Barnard Castle, County Durham, November 2022

description: This collection comprises images from Historic Building Recording at Church Hall, Hall Street, Barnard Castle, County Durham. This work was undertaken by Rocket Heritage and Archaeology Ltd in November 2022. The Hall Street Congregational Church was built to a style common to non-conformist places of worship in the earlier 19th century. It was constructed using local stone and was a ceremonial space, vestry to the southwest and separate Sunday School to the rear. The records of building works in the 1940s and of changes made in the 1970s, 1990s and early 2000s are supported by the visible fabric of the building today. Although at first appearing to retain numerous original features, close inspection shows that only elements of the first-floor gallery panelling and floorboards, the ceiling rose, staircase, and all but one of the ground floor pillars are original. The design of the stained-glass windows in the south elevation is late 19th or early 20th century and indicates that they are a later replacement. Despite the many alterations, the layout of the building and features enable its function as a place of worship to still be appreciated. This record demonstrates that the church was repeatedly remodelled to suit the evolving needs of the congregation during the 20th century.

title: Digital Data from Archaeological Trial Trenching at Elms Farm, Watling Street, Hinckley, Warwickshire 2019

description: This collection comprises images, scanned site records and a CAD vector graphic from a programme of archaeological trial trenching carried out by Headland Archaeology (UK) Ltd on land at Elms Farm, Watling Street, Hinckley. The work took place in April 2019 prior to the determination of a planning application for the construction of four poultry sheds and associated infrastructure.
The trial trench evaluation involved the excavation of nine trenches all of which were devoid of archaeological features. Field drains observed
in all nine trenches attest to land management and an attempt to drain a clay site likely prone to waterlogging. Therefore, on the basis of the evaluation, the archaeological potential of the proposed development is assessed as low. No further archaeological work is anticipated.

title: Images from an Archaeological Excavation at Guyzance Avenue, Togston Road, North Broomhill, Northumberland, October 2022

description: This collection comprises images from a Strip Map And Sample Excavation at land northeast of Guyzance Avenue, Togston Road, North Broomhill, Northumberland. This work was undertaken by Rocket Heritage and Archaeology Ltd in October 2022. The proposed methodology was to excavate an area 36.80m by 43.80m in the southeast area of the field. The area was machine excavated under constant archaeological supervision, using a mechanical excavator fitted with a toothless ditching bucket. The results from the archaeological fieldwork have demonstrated the absence of archaeological potential of the site, with particularly high levels of truncation as a result of multiple regimens of ploughing and natural rooting activity. An earlier trial trenching scheme demonstrated small scale archaeological potential and this work explored that assumption. It is now clear that earlier work actually identified rooting events, which were subsequently recorded during this phase of work.
