Abstract: |
Recording and survey work were carried out at Chedworth Roman Villa, a site which had been rediscovered during the 19th century. Areas of walling to be conserved were recorded after the raking-out of modern pointing, prior to repair and re-pointing with lime-mortars. It was observed that Victorian and possibly later rebuilding work could be distinguished by the relative regularity and flatness of its courses, by differences in the quality of dressing of stone blocks, and by differences in the composition of lime-mortars. Several phases of rebuilding and consolidation were identified, and it was observed that such rebuilding had been fairly extensive. Phasing of the Roman work was found to have been more complex than previously believed. Limited ground observation revealed that despite extensive archaeological excavation, survival of Roman stratigraphy associated with the villa may also have been greater than supposed. [Au(adp)] |
