Abstract:		 An archaeological evaluation was undertaken by Cotswold Archaeology in January and February 2010 at the site of the proposed Gloucestershire Gateway Motorway Services Area. Fifty trenches were excavated. A linear anomaly detected by an earlier geophysical survey was identified and excavated in one trench, but no artefacts or ecofacts were present with which to date it. Ridge and furrow, both where present as existing earthworks and where indicated by the geophysical survey, produced no secure dating evidence, although some medieval and post-medieval artefacts were recovered from the ploughsoil. Six historic boundaries shown on 19th-century maps were investigated and their construction could not be securely dated, although post-medieval and modern artefacts were retrieved from their uppermost fills. No archaeological features were identified within trenches in a field named Blacklands in the north-east of the Site, despite the potential of the field name to indicate the location of previous settlement activity.
