Abstract:
In May 2015, Cotswold Archaeology carried out an archaeological evaluation of land at Charity Farm, Stonesfield, Oxfordshire. The evaluation comprised the excavation of 12 evaluation trenches. The Oxfordshire Historic Environment Record records no known heritage assets within the proposed development site, but the site lies adjacent to the northern edge of the Scheduled Monument of Stonesfield Roman villa (SAM No. 336649) A previous geophysical survey identified a number of potential ditches and pits. The evaluation recorded a curvilinear ditch in the north-western part of the site (Trench 1) This feature contained a possible human cremation buried within a pottery vessel dating to the Middle to Late Iron Age. An undated pit was located to the east of the ditch. Slight evidence of previous farming activity was shown by the presence of plough scars within the southernmost part of the site. Despite the presence of Stonesfield Roman villa in the fields directly to the south, no evidence of Romano-British occupation or activity was found. The evaluation results displayed a minimal correlation with the geophysical survey results, although the identified curvilinear anomaly was found to correspond to below-ground archaeological remains.
