Abstract: |
John Moore Heritage Services conducted an evaluation at the site of the proposed redevelopment of the Christian Centre, Old Town, Wotton-under-Edge, Gloucestershire (NGR ST 75823 93356), prior to a planning application being presented to the council. The evaluation proved that there was in situ archaeology on the site below deposits of made ground. The later deposits constituted post-medieval garden features that had considerably disturbed the earlier stratigraphy in some places and left it undisturbed in others. In Trench 4 there were a series of pits that dated from the medieval and post-medieval periods. In Trench 1 there were the remains of a house platform fronting onto Old Town Street. In Trench 3 the remains of two wall foundations of a medieval building, while in Trench 2 the remains of a probable substantial wall foundation were uncovered. Though numerous animal bones were recovered no evidence of human burial was found associated with the chapel. |
