Abstract:		 An archaeological evaluation was undertaken by Cotswold Archaeology in July 2015 on land at Draycott Lane, Blockley, Gloucestershire. Six trenches were excavated. Prior to excavation a geophysical survey of the site identified a number of anomalies some of which broadly correspond to features including ridge and furrow identified during the evaluation. A number of Roman ditches and pits were identified that may represent agricultural land use on the site dating to the 1st and 2nd centuries. In Trench 5 pottery of 3rd to 4th century date was recovered from a ploughsoil which sealed archaeological deposits. A possible limestone rubble foundation was identified in Trench 3. This was not directly dated, but a rubble spread thought to have originated as part of the footing contained pottery spanning the Roman, medieval and Early-Modern periods. These remains were heavily truncated by post-Roman ridge and furrow.
