Abstract: |
Oxford Archaeology was commissioned by CgMs Consulting to undertake a watching brief during highway improvement works on the A429 Burford Road east of Cirencester Town Centre. Existing exposures through the natural bedrock were recorded and a low moundadjacent to Burford Road was investigated. The mound proved to be of geological origin. The presence of a mature tree on the mound has undoubtedly protected the mound from more recent truncation. An existing footpath to the north-east was monitored, revealing the footing of a dry stone wall which had flanked the existing road. No other archaeological deposits or features were revealed. |
