Abstract: |
In February 2000 CAT were commissioned by The National Trust to undertake an archaeological survey of buried mosaics at Chedworth Roman Villa. In May 2000, CAT was further contracted to undertake an archaeological survey of part of the drainage system at the villa. The initial survey successfully identified remnant mosaic floors in various locations throughout the Villa's northern range. In addition, more substantial and better preserved tessellated surfaces were discovered in the western range. In the western range evidence of an earlier phase of building and of activity post dating the laying of the mosaic floors was also found. The drainage survey demonstrated that a series of soakaways had been inserted after the initial excavation of the Villa in the Victorian period. Finds recovered during the project included a single sherd of post-Roman grass-tempered pottery dateable to the 5th to 8th century AD. [Au(abr)] |
