Abstract:		 A second phase of archaeological evaluation was undertaken by Cotswold Archaeology in February/March 2016. Twenty one trenches were excavated. One trench revealed a large, possibly prehistoric quarry pit. Two other undated pits were noted, one containing large quantities of crushed burnt flint which would appear to have had an as yet unknown industrial function, but also probably dating to the prehistoric period. An arc of seven postholes possibly forming a section of a roundhouse structure and seven undated ditches were also recorded. Trench 19 was excavated across a Scheduled Ancient Monument (MDO5439) revealing a pair of parallel flanking ditches and a thin sorted gravel layer, forming the metalling of a remnant Roman road. Moderate quantities of burnt and worked flint were recovered from all but one of the trenches.
