Area 13 and Area 5, Larkhill Camp, Larkhill, Wiltshire (OASIS ID: wessexar1-92176)

Wessex Archaeology was commissioned by Aspire Defence Capital Works (the Client) to undertake an archaeological watching brief during development works at Area 13 (LACG13) and Area 5 (LADG05), Larkhill Camp, Larkhill, Wiltshire, centred on National Grid Reference SU 1340 4490 (hereafter, the Site). The fieldwork comprised the topsoil and subsoil strip of a car park and an access road in Area 13 and the excavation of a trench within the footprint of building LA064 in Area 5. Only features of demonstrable modern date were identified during the watching brief. Severe modern disturbance was observed truncating the natural deposits in the southernmost part of the car park and along part of the access road. An assemblage of residual worked flint, of possibly Bronze Age date, was identified within both the topsoil and modern features and is indicative of the known background level of prehistoric activity in the area.

韦塞克斯考古（Wessex Archaeology）受Aspire国防资本工程公司（Aspire Defence Capital Works，委托方）委托，在威尔特郡拉基希尔的拉基希尔营地13区（LACG13）与5区（LADG05）的开发工程期间开展考古监护监测工作，作业区域以国家网格参考（National Grid Reference）SU 1340 4490为中心（以下简称“本遗址”）。本次野外工作包含两部分：一是对13区内一处停车场及通行道路的表土层与亚表土层进行剥离，二是对5区内LA064号建筑基底范围内的探沟进行发掘。本次考古监护监测仅识别出可确认年代为现代的遗迹。观测显示，停车场最南端及部分通行道路沿线存在严重的现代扰动，该扰动截断了原生沉积层。在表土层与现代遗迹中均发现了可能属于青铜时代的残遗加工燧石制品组合，该组合反映了该区域已知的史前活动背景水平。
