Abstract: |
A programme of archaeological investigation was undertaken by Cotswold Archaeology between July and October 2015 at Rugby SUE Key Phase 1, Rugby, Warwickshire. In compliance with an approved Project Design (CA 2015) a total of 1.96ha was excavated in six areas (Areas B-E and H-I) located across the development site. The majority of the archaeology was revealed within Area I and included an Iron Age pit alignment and isolated pits, and a Roman field system comprising two droveways, ditches for five enclosures, watering holes, a ring ditch and associated oven, one curvilinear ditch (possibly a truncated ring ditch), pits and a well. A small number of mostly undated pit and ditch features were identified within Areas B, C, D, E, H, and J. Aside from a small flint assemblage comprising residual material dating from the Mesolithic to Bronze Age periods, the artefacts recovered from the site are generally Iron Age or Roman in date. Two sherds of intrusive Anglo-Saxon pottery and a small amount of post-medieval pottery were also recovered. This document presents a summary of the fieldwork results along with a summary and quantification of the artefactual and ecofactual evidence recovered from the excavation. |
