Abstract:
An evaluation excavation was carried out at the corner of Gorsty Lane and Sudbury Avenue, Tupsley, as a prerequisite to the determination of a planning application. It was thought that the site possibly lay on the line of a Roman road. Two trenches were dug, both down to natural clay, and from the lower levels of one some Victorian pottery was recovered, together with three medieval sherds. Above this was a thick layer of modern demolition or building debris. No indication of a Roman road was found, or of any other archaeological activity. If the postulated Roman road did exist, it could have been to one or other side of the present roadway; alternatively, all traces may have been removed in the historic period.[AIP]
