Abstract: |
<summary>An evaluation programme was carried out on land to the rear of 43 Loxley Road, Stratford-upon-Avon, prior to determination of a planning application for residential development on the site. The study area lay in close proximity to several areas of archaeological interest. Fourteen 1m square trial-pits identified the presence of a small quantity of struck flint of possible Mesolithic and Neolithic date and several abraded sherds of pottery of Romano-British and possible Iron Age and medieval dates. Six linear trenches were machine-excavated across the site; archaeological features (pits, gullies, post holes), and a limited quantity of artefactual material, were revealed in four of them. The evidence recovered confirmed Romano-British occupation within the study area. The archaeological deposits may have formed part of an extensive Romano-British farmstead occupying the gravel terraces of the Avon valley. {italon}Au{italoff} {italon}SMR Primary Record Numbers:{italoff} WA6480, 7218, 7243 |
