Abstract/Summary
An open area excavation was undertaken on the summit of the Hunsbury Ridge, as the proposed road route affected the environs of an early Bronze Age round barrow. The barrow itself lay beyond the road corridor, but an unurned satellite cremation burial was located, lying approximately 27m from the barrow. A subsequent watching brief was maintained during the initial removal of topsoil and subsoil along the entire length of the route but no further features were recorded.
