...an archeological north-south trench here would settle the question?

That would mean a trench across the main road - doubt it.

...sounds suspiciously like the remains or memory of a pagan shrine to me [cf. 'Waden Hill' placename]?

Yup, I agree. The Vale of Pewsey has strong Woden associations (don't ask me where I read that, it's all beginning to merge into one very complicated pre-Christian pagan/Roman/Germanic landscape).
