Abstract:		 A programme of archaeological evaluation was undertaken by Border Archaeology Ltd (BA) at The Lodge No. 19 Brunswick Square Gloucester (NGR: SO 82960 18084) on behalf of Mike Teague Esq in October 2015, comprising two evaluation trenches measuring 9.5m × 3m (Trench 1) and 12m × 2m (Trench 2). The evaluation identified a sequence of layers formed by the gradual accumulation of material during the post-medieval (c. 1540-1900) and, possibly, medieval (1066-1540) periods, situated in the open area of Gaudy Green to the southeast of the post-Roman city. A brick structure partially truncated the layers revealed in Trench 2 whilst Trench 1 contained an associated yard surface or similar feature at its northern extent. Underlying these layers was a series of linear and discrete features of a Roman date, cutting a Roman soil horizon present within both trenches. These are possibly of agricultural origin and may represent boundary ditches, with several associated postholes present within Trench 2. This layer sealed alluvium, which, in turn overlay the natural clay geology. In addition to the Roman archaeology identified within Trench 1, a small assemblage of seven in-situ worked flints was recovered, primarily from the surface of the alluvium, with one presumably residual flint found within the fill of an east/west aligned linear feature. Overall, the results of the evaluation attest to the presence of transient prehistoric activity and peripheral activity of Roman date, extending through to the post-medieval period and representing a probable agricultural landscape that remained largely unchanged until the development of Brunswick Square and the surrounding area.
