Wessex Archaeology was commissioned by Hampshire County Council Property Services to carry out archaeological monitoring, investigation and recording during the excavation of the footprint for a modular temporary classroom. The groundworks for the temporary classroom involved an initial strip of the overburden within the building's footprint, followed by the excavation of 48 pad holes, together with two service trenches. A feature was encountered in one of the pad holes The pad was only small so very little of the feature was exposed. However, there was a clearly visible cut through the natural, running NNE to SSW on the eastern side of the pad hole. The fill was a reddish brown silty clay, with common pebbles and significant volumes of Romano-British pottery and ceramic building material (CBM), suggesting an association to the Roman kiln site.
