Abstract:
An archaeological excavation was undertaken by Cotswold Archaeology between June and November 2008 on Land at Charfield Road, Kingswood, Gloucestershire. Phase 1, Phase 2 and the Access Road of the development site were identified as having archaeological potential on the basis of preliminary works undertaken during a desk-based assessment, geophysical survey and evaluation. These parts of the site were mechanically stripped and then archaeologically recorded. Archaeological remains consisting of two Roman ditches, two undated pits and a small number of post-medieval/modern features were identified. The results of the excavation correlate well with those of the geophysical survey and evaluation. Although small quantities of Roman building material were recovered, the absence of structural remains on the site suggests that the Roman ditches formed part of a field system and that any associated settlement lay beyond the site. The ditch fills were darker and more finds-rich towards the southern end of the site, suggesting that any related settlement might lie to the south, perhaps on or close to the top of the valley side on which the site is located.
