Abstract: |
An archaeological watching brief was undertaken by Cotswold Archaeology during groundworks associated with the change of use of the basement to a staff room at Chedworth Lodge Basement, Chedworth Roman Villa, Gloucestershire. Groundworks comprised removal of the backfill of the earlier evaluation trench and further excavation of the trench to a depth of 1.02m below previous ground level (BpGL) to further investigate the nature of the archaeological deposits and to accommodate a waste pump. The ground level of the whole of the basement area was subsequently reduced by c. 0.51m. Colluvial deposits as well as several layers of made ground dumped prior to the erection of the Victorian lodge house were identified. Roman material from the excavation of the villa site in the 1860s was recorded but no significant archaeological features were identified. |
