6.2 A search of the Wiltshire Historic Environment Record (HER) returned a total of
32 entries for the study area, two of which are within the application site field
boundary (Figure 6, Table 2, sites 17 and 18). The English Heritage Pastscape
record returned 33 results within the study area. The combined HER and Pastscape
records and a concordance are presented in Table 2 (individual barrow entries for the
large Bronze Age cemeteries have been amalgamated for ease of presentation). The
overall date range of sites and findspots includes an extensive prehistoric landscape
including field systems, barrow cemeteries and settlement sites; a Roman road from
Winchester (Venta Belgarum) to Old Sarum (Sorviodunum) and stray Romano-British
finds; possible Anglo-Saxon burials, finds of medieval date and post-medieval
buildings.
