Abstract:		 An archaeological evaluation was undertaken at the site of the proposed Straw Cottage, Main Street, Todenham, Gloucestershire (NGR SP 24363 36353). It was undertaken on behalf of Clive Webster, who intends to residential development of the site for which a planning application will be submitted. The site is located on the northern side of the village, approximately 5.5km north-east of Moretonin- Marsh. The site comprises an irregular shaped plot of land to the north-east of the church of St Thomas a Becket, and west of the former Manor Farm. Two trenches were excavated, revealing two features of significance. An amorphous feature lay at c 0.50m below the ground surface and extended into the south-west boundary of the site. It contained fragments of pottery potential 10th to 14th century date, and a small quantity of animal bone. The full form and function are unclear. Toward the central north side of the site a north to south aligned ditch was recorded at c0.90m bgs. It contained a single tiny sherd of pottery of unknown date. The ditch does appear to be depicted on maps from 1885 onwards, and was sealed by a developed subsoil, so may be of an early date. Its function is unclear but is postulated to be agricultural. No other features, layers, structure or finds of archaeological significance were identified. Layers of stone and brick rubble noted below the topsoil toward the south-west corner of the site may relate to a track indicated on maps from 1902 to 1978.
