Abstract: |
The watching brief comprised the observation by a competent archaeologist of all
intrusive groundworks associated with the proposed development. This
consisted of the excavation of foundations for a new building, service trenches and a
new fence line. In July and August 2019 and January and February 2021, Cotswold Archaeology carried out
an archaeological watching brief during groundworks associated with refurbishment works at
Cirencester Primary School, Victoria Road, Cirencester.
The watching brief identified a surface, of currently indeterminate function but predating a
probable ‘dark-earth’ deposit within a trench excavated in the north-western part of the site.
Probable ‘dark-earth’ deposits were also identified in two further trenches excavated in this
part of the site.
No further features or deposits predating the modern period were identified during the current
works. |
