Wessex Archaeology was commissioned by Colliers International to undertake an archaeological evaluation ahead of the proposed construction of a single-storey coffee shop unit on land adjacent to Homebase, Headington Retail Park, Horspath Driftway, Oxford centred on NGR 455518, 204927. The fieldwork was undertaken on 30th-31th January 2017. This evaluation comprised a single trench measuring 12m by 1.8m within the centre of the proposed development area. A broadly consistent stratigraphic sequence was recorded, comprising modern tarmac overlying gravel and hard core levelling deposits. These overlay the limestone natural geology. No archaeological features or deposits were encountered within the trench. 1 page summary submitted to Oxfordshire Museums Service
