Hardcover. Condition: new. Hardcover. Salisbury is renowned for its superb medieval cathedral and planned city centred on its market. Traces of timber-framed buildings, which served as homes for countless generations of Salisbury occupants, still remain. The lives of these former residents can now start to be reconstructed from the archaeological evidence as parts of the city have been redeveloped. Foundations of former houses can be matched with upstanding buildings to reconstruct the appearance of medieval Salisbury. The everyday lives, health, diet, occupations and social status of the residents can be illustrated using pottery, animal bones and food remains referencing how the urban population integrated with communities in rural areas. This volume attempts to bring these diverse strands of archaeological evidence together for the first time to tell the story of this cathedral city and its residents through its engaging past.

During the period 1979-1986, a major redevelopment of Reading town centre allowed a series of excavations at the waterfront, which was the heart of urban development in medieval period due to the influence of the nearby Abbey. The excavations uncovered substantial evidence for the construction, repeated refurbishment and use of waterfront structures which included hards, wooden revetments, wharfs and associated buildings spanning the medieval period. The report details these finds, and includes a dendrochronological study from the recovery of over 100 timbers as well as a documentary study of the history of the Reading waterfronts. Ref R1.

Hardcover. Condition: new. Hardcover. This volume presents the results of a series of fieldwalking surveys and excavations of Iron Age and Romano-British sites in two areas of the Salisbury Plain Training Area. Altogether some 18 new settlement sites were discovered of which 13 were Romano-British, three were predominantly Iron Age, and two produced evidence of Middle-Late Bronze Age occupation. Small-scale excavation was undertaken at eight enclosures and field systems, accompanied by targeted environmental sampling.An increase in enclosure through to the later Iron Age was revealed, when there was evidence for settlement abandonment followed by a further development of unenclosed settlement and the emergence of nucleated villages such as Chisenbury Warren in the Late Iron Age and through the Romano-British period. This volume presents the results of a series of fieldwalking surveys and excavations of Iron Age and Romano-British sites in two areas of the Salisbury Plain Training Area.

At Prospect Park, near Harmondsworth, several features containing Neolithic Grooved Ware were encountered and slight evidence for Neolithic activity was recorded at both Hurst Park, East Molesey, and Wickhams Field, near Reading. An Early Bronze Age ring-ditch, with associated Collared Urn cremation burials, was found at Hurst Park. The Middle Bronze Age was represented at both Hurst Park and Prospect Park by a ring-ditch, two cremation burials, and a pit. Late Bronze Age settlements dating from the 11th-9th centuries BC were recorded at Hurst Park and Prospect Park. Early Iron Age settlement was indicated at Wickhams Field by the presence of a trackway, enclosure, and associated pits. The Romano-British period was represented at all three sites by two farmsteads and a single cremation burial. At Prospect Park, Early Saxon settlement of the 5th or 6th century AD was represented by four sunken-featured buildings, two timber halls, pits, and a well. At Wickhams Field, evidence for a Saxon settlement of 7th-9th century date was revealed by a series of storage pits, and a pair of wells. Ref R1.
