Abstract: |
An archaeological evaluation was undertaken by Cotswold Archaeology in February 2014 at Land at Parklands Farm, Whitminster, Gloucestershire. Severn trenches were excavated. The evaluation suggested the site had been in arable cultivation from as early as the 12th to 13th centuries. A ditch or furrow containing three sherds of pottery of this date, and a number of broadly similar features, suggest cultivation and field systems predating the extant ridge and furrow. There was also evidence for quarrying and use of the site as an orchard in later periods, in the form of a number of quarry and treethrow pits. |
