Abstract:
An archaeological evaluation was carried out during January 2017 at land adjoining St James's Church, High Street, Saul, Gloucestershire as part of a proposal to create an extension of the existing churchyard for the internment of cremations. The evaluation identified three truncated undated features of potential archaeological significance cut into the surface of the natural gravel at a depth varying between 0.50-0.70m below the existing ground level. This variation may be explained by the former presence of agricultural earthworks (ridge and furrow cultivation) as evidenced by the undulations in the surface of the natural gravel. Two of the features comprised ditches of unknown date that may form part of the early settlement landscape at Saul. The third, which seemed slightly curved with a shallow rounded terminus at one end, differed in fill and remains an anomaly. Although undated, if the truncation of these features can be attributed to the effects of ridge and furrow cultivation rather than something more recent, it would suggest that they are likely to at least pre-date the post-medieval period.
