Abstract:		 Significant discoveries were made along the pipeline route at sites within Oxfordshire and Swindon, ranging in date from the Mesolithic through to the Anglo-Saxon periods. At Filchampstead, Oxfordshire, evidence of Iron Age settlement was identified, including a probable burnt box within a ditch. More limited activity dating to the Early Roman and medieval periods was also present on the same site. At Kingston Hill, Oxfordshire, traces of Mid-Saxon enclosures were present. The majority of the features were medieval paddocks Duxford Farm, Oxfordshire, included a concentration of Middle Neolithic pits, a Middle Iron Age trackway and a small number of associated features. Most features dated to the Roman period including a re-alignment of the trackway, with adjoining field boundaries and a curvilinear ditch. At Pennyswick Farm, Oxfordshire, a medieval or post-medieval feature was found. Initial analysis suggests that this may have been the remains of a stock pen, possibly of timber and cob construction. A significant concentration Mesolithic, Roman and Anglo-Saxon finds came from an Oxfordshire field near Appleton, recorded during the watching brief. In Swindon, a site at Broad Blunsdon included a Roman ditch and pit, an Anglo-Saxon pit and a number of undated quarry pits
