Abstract:
An archaeological watching brief was undertaken by Cotswold Archaeology during groundworks associated with the replacement of the existing storage facilities with a single storey building at Rackhams Cirencester, Market Place, Cirencester, Gloucestershire. An undated but possibly Roman layer was exposed at the base of a foundation trench and was sealed by dark earth. The dark earth had been cut by the construction cuts for two walls, one of which contained a 15th to early 16th-century French jetton. These walls appear to be part of late medieval/early post-medieval boundaries associated with plots fronting onto Market Place. The late medieval/early post-medieval boundary walls were sealed by a 19th-century dumped layer which formed the construction level for a limestone surface. This layer was also cut by a well. These deposits seem to indicate a period of reorganisation within the site during the 19th century.
