Graduate Centre Lady Margaret Hall Oxford

Oxford Archaeology South was commissioned to undertake an archaeological
excavation ahead of the construction of a new Graduate Centre at Lady Margaret
Hall. The only archaeological feature encountered was a single curvilinear gully,
which had previously been recorded during the evaluation stage. The gully was
undated and was sealed by a buried soil layer that was cut by 19th century pits and
drains. The 19th century features were overlain by a sequence of made ground
deposits totalling 1.2m in depth. A single sherd from a Roman wine amphora was
recovered from one of the 19th century drains.
