Abstract:
A programme of archaeological work comprising a measured earthwork survey followed by a trial trenching evaluation was undertaken by Cotswold Archaeology in June and July 2011 on land at Bourton-On-The-Water, Gloucestershire. Seventeen trenches were excavated. Trial trenching in fields 1-3 revealed no archaeological features in addition to the established ridge and furrow pattern, apart from two modern ceramic land drains orientated north-east to south-west in trenches 12 and 13. A curving drainage ditch of probable post-medieval date, running broadly north-west to south-east, was excavated in trenches 6 and 9 in field 4. This drainage ditch clearly truncated the ridge and furrow. The trenches within field 5 revealed a simple stone drain, of probable post-medieval date, within each of the north-west to south-east orientated furrows. At least one of these stone drains feed into one of two larger parallel culverted stone drains in trench 1, which were broadly aligned north to south. These two culverted stone drains are likely to have functioned as part of the same drainage system as the ditch in field 4. A modern ceramic service pipe was also revealed in trench 4.
