Headington School Headington Road Oxford

In May 2014, Oxford Archaeology undertook an archaeological watching brief for
West Waddy ADP on behalf of Headington School during groundworks associated
with the construction of a new sports building and classroom extension. The
watching brief revealed a cluster of early Iron Age pits that may have been
associated with unlocated domestic focus situated somewhere to the south and/or
west beyond the boundary of the site. Other features revealed included an isolated
undated pit, the base of a possible furrow, and a brick well or soakaway of probable
17th-18th century construction. Additionally, a relatively linear configuration of
postholes was revealed and are likely to represent a modern fenceline.
