Abstract: |
An archaeological evaluation was undertaken by Cotswold Archaeology in April 2017. Seventy-eight trenches, each measuring 25m long, were excavated, with archaeological features recorded in twenty four of the trenches. The vast majority were shallow, undated drainage features. However, a central cluster of ditches produced an assemblage of 2nd-century Romano-British pottery (greyware), a number of burnt amphora sherds, and dispersed domestic hearth material; all suggesting that a farmstead, or a similar property, may have been located in the vicinity. The posited farmstead lay most likely to the east of the site, in proximity to Trenches 35 and 41. Trench 35 included a shallow ditch which produced a moderate quantity of burnt flint and an assemblage of 2nd-century Romano-British pottery in addition to a number of burnt amphora sherds. Trench 41 produced possible foundations of two walls which contained locally produced 2nd-century pottery sherds. |
