Land west of Witan Way, Witney, Oxfordshire

In March 1998 the Oxford Archaeological Unit undertook a field evaluation at Land West of Witan Way, Witney, Oxfordshire on behalf of Tay Homes. Six evaluation trenches were excavated. The evaluation revealed a small number of features of probable post-medieval date. The features comprised a large pit or waterhole in one trench, and in another trench two post-holes, one with a wooden stake fragment adjacent. Some medieval pottery was also recovered from these trenches. The remaining three trenches were devoid of archaeological features and finds.
