Abstract:
Wessex Archaeology was commissioned by CgMs Consulting, acting on behalf of Barratt Homes to undertake a staged programme of heritage and archaeological mitigation, prior to and during the demolition of the former Hucclecote Centre and the construction of a new housing estate known as Mayfield Place, off Churchdown Lane, Hucclecote, Gloucester, centred on National Grid Reference (NGR) SO 87689 17449. Mayfield Place is located immediately to the south of the Hucclecote Roman Villa Scheduled Monument. Previous phases of archaeological work (Stages 1-4), which were undertaken between 2014 and 2015 uncovered extensive remains of a Romano-British field system and trackway associated with the villa and evidence of Post-Roman activity. Stage 5 of the mitigation, which comprised a watching brief during drainage and landscaping works associated with the construction of a new rugby pitch and public open space, was undertaken between August and November 2016. The watching brief uncovered further remains of the villa's field system, two postholes, a medieval/post-medieval plough furrow and a pit containing an early 4th-century AD coin hoard. The hoard comprised thirteen base metal coins, which were probably deposited soon after AD 321. The coins have been reported as potential Treasure to the British Museum and to the local Coroner (Treasure case no. 2017 T323) who will eventually decide upon their status under the Treasure Act 1996. It is recommended that the results of the Stage 5 watching brief will be integrated with the results of previous stages of work on the Site and published as part of a forthcoming article in Transactions of the Bristol and Gloucestershire Archaeological Society.
