Abstract: |
An archaeological evaluation was undertaken by Cotswold Archaeology in October and November 2012 at the Former Trelleborg Site, Tewkesbury, Gloucestershire. Twelve trenches were excavated. A single furrow, probably a part of the medieval ridge and furrow ploughing recorded from aerial photographs, survived. Relict ploughsoil at the very south of the site may also date to this period. Truncation in the north of the site may relate to the former presence of a branch line to Tewkesbury from the Birmingham to Gloucester railway, whilst elsewhere the high degree of truncation observed is presumed to results from the construction of the Trelleborg factory itself. Residual sherds of Roman and medieval pottery were recovered from a buried topsoil deposit |
