    Land at Winterbrook, Wallingford, Oxfordshire An Archaeological Evaluation for Berkeley Homes (Oxford and Chiltern) Ltd by James Lewis Thames Valley Archaeological Services Ltd Site Code WWO09/57 October 2009 Summary Site name: Land at Winterbrook, Wallingford, Oxfordshire Grid reference: SU6010 8840 Site activity: Field Evaluation Date and duration of project: 25th August – 10th October 2009 Project manager: Steve Ford Site supervisor: James Lewis Site code: WWO09/57 Area of site: 24 ha Summary of results: Evaluation trenching confirmed the presence of a number of archaeological features (some already identified from geophysical survey and aerial photographs) and showed that these span several phases of activity, but with an appreciable density only in the early Iron Age. The remains encountered may be considered typical of this part of the Thames Valley. Some zones within the site appeared to be of lower potential. Areas of high archaeological potential have already been excluded from the development area by design.

    Vol No 6 Editorial THE VILLAGER Feb – March 2017 It’s still the start of a new year, a new term or for some of you perhaps a new job. I hope 2017 is working out well for you. January can be a low-spirited, Contents restrained month after the happiness and excesses of Christmas, but it’s nearly over and lighter evenings are on their way, something that cheers me up. Editoral 2 Sam Holland / Thank You from Gloria Hamilton-Peach 3 It’s been a sad month for the village as we lost three good men – Colin Parish Council / Neighbourhood Plan 4 Hamilton-Peach, Dick Mason and Ron Wood; and a fourth, a previous Community Association / Safari Supper 5 resident known to many, Sam Holland, just before Christmas. We send our St Agatha’s Concerts / St James’ Churchyard / Next village lunch 6 condolences to their families. Brightwell Parish Church 7-8 Brightwell-cum-Sotwell Primary School 8-9 2017 is expected to herald years of change in various ways, both on the world Village Stores & Post Office / Days Lock Meadow 10 stage from what we have heard at the inauguration of the new President Brightwell Art Club / Awakening 11 Trump and with negotiations on Brexit getting underway. Here in our village work on some of the housing development discussed at various meetings is Winter Wassailing 12-13 likely to begin. As we publish, three separate planning applications have been Save the Children 14 submitted to SODC for a total of 76 new houses (see page 4) and there are Open Gardens 14 probably others in the pipeline.
