Abstract:
The evaluation was carried out in an area where previous geophysical survey had revealed anomalies relating to archaeological remains. The trenches generally confirmed the geophysical data, and revealed a series of extensive and well-preserved Roman structures and deposits just below the modern ground surface. The principal features located included the metalled Roman Road, up to 11m wide and with evidence for earlier boundary ditches and later stone kerbing, a series of stone buildings and evidence for ditch-digging activity. A significant assemblage of finds were recovered, mostly dating to the later Roman period, including fine tableware, coins, decorated glass and structural metalwork. The site proved to be a large, important and previously unknown rural roadside settlement, and represented the first non-villa settlement of theis scale to be discovered in South Gloucestershire. It was thought to reflect the principal focus of local settlement in this area at this time. [Au(abr)]
