30. DIDCOT4Allagtave.Farm Members of the Didcot and District-ArChaeological and HiStorical Society maintained a watching brief:during buildingwoork on the.o14 - .caravan site.at Blagrave.Farm. -Several:pieces_of. pottery 'ranging'. from the Roman-period to the present day were:recovered. but no .deep stratification or-nther remains were,observed: (PRN 8035; Centred SU 5215 9051). _DIDCOT, Hospital Field: The Didcot and District- Archaeological and, Historical Society:, have excavated, two sections across theboundary of the small,lopen', three fielcLsysteni firSt.recorded inthel8th century. The line:of. the boundary.ditch with its slight interior bank can.still.be traced on the ground for almost its.entire length. The boundary'ditch was demonstrated to have a V-shaped profile. Ceramic fragments from the, lower fill showed that the boundary ditch was, notclug until,the 19tk century (PRN 11,868; Centred.SU 5122,8975)., DORCHESTER, 8 Bridge End Excavation for a soak-a-way fora newly completed.house Uncovered more skeletons belonging.to-a large Cemetery at .the end of Rotten Row .(PRN 11,844).. :Unlike several preVious finds.pf. human,. -skeletal:Material.beneath.or iumediateliadjacent,to several houses at the end of Rotten Rowit .proVed possible to eXcavate.these burials, within the' confines of the' pit and-to examine theirHstratigraphic relationships....

'The presence of.residual fragments-of 4th.century-Roman period pottery (PRN.11,873) in .the gravefillsindicatedthat this cemeteryprobably belongs to the.AngloSaxon or*MedieVal periods. The *absence of Anglo-Saxon 'and Medieval.Tottery At all levels indicates that this site may .have.been rederved-forhurial throughout both. - periods.' 33. DORCHESTER, White Hart Hotel, High Street -During alteretions to the White Hart Hotel in, the spring of 1979, two.human,bUrials were.found' beneath.the floor of the earliest part of the hotel whiCh dates to the early.17th century. AlthoUgh it was clear that these two_individuals were.buried.prior tà the con-, struction of the hotel. a precise date could, not be placed oirtheirinterment and they moetprobably belong to a period somewhere between the early, 5th century collapse of the Roman town and the leter Medieval period. - 174-
DRAYTON .A.watching brief.by Jeff Wallisof the Abingdon Area Archaeological.and Historical Society. has bégun on land now being'cleared of toPsoil for gravel extraction. Ab yet no definite settlement features have been observed. GLYMPTON, SlaPe Copse. Recently part of the Copse which covered the.earthwork remains of a Medieval farmstead examined by Peter Fasham in 1971 was cleared and the ground tidied up by machine. In order to determine the. amount of damage that this had infliCted on thé remains With a view .to deterMining how they..might-best be preserved R.A Chambers undertook the excavation of a series of nine trial trenches. These' excavations.not only enabled the measurement of the degree of . machine damage.which-proved to be mainly superficial, but also prOvided.an opportunity to produce a comprehensive earihworks-plan, to'define the true extent of the Site and to indicate archaeologically the period of occupation assat present the documentarievidence is unclear. The earthwork remains of the farmstead lie on the western side of the Glyme Valley, on the brow of a north facing slope next to the A34 main road. Today the site (Fig. V) is marked by a hollow track A leading up from the valley to what appears to be a yard area B and a cluster of earthworks adjacent to the A34 main road. Geological opinion considers the large terrace C running north-east to south-west across the hill slope to be natural land slip and this interpretation was born out by trench IV. From an earlier, incomplete survey undertaken in 1971 three buildings were identified from the earthworks at D, E and F. By excavation building D was found to survive with up to 0.7 m of drystone wall intact in places and the base of an oven retained at G. This building had been erected over earlier Medieval occupation and the building had been extended at least once. The site appears to have extended a little to the north of the hollow way A as trial trench III provided much domestic debris from an undisturbed Medieval soil. Although the ground surface suggested a possible building site at H two trenches VI and VII produced structural remains. A building at F was shown to have been built across what appears to be a hollow way J leading into the Medieval farm and this building was also built over earlier occupation features. The end of another hollowed roadway K is probably of more recent date leading to a filledin stone quarry 100 m to the south-east. The deeply pronounced west end of hollow way J is probably the result of a trial pit as part of the later stone quarrying. Although trench III provided much domestic debris a geophysical survey of the site by magnetometer and resistivity meter produced no evidence for occupation in the adjacent pasture field to the north-west. The geophysical survey also covered the earthworks and the results corresponded with that found in the trial trenches with one anomaly, a circular patch approximately 5 m in diameter. A small trench IX dug into the centre confirmed a deep pit, over 1.3 m deep filled with building debris and some - 175-
