Abstract: |
John Moore Heritage Services carried out an archaeological watching brief at 70 Greet Road at Winchcombe in Gloucestershire (NGR SP 02500 29258). This was after the demolition of a bungalow but during the insertion of foundations. The remains of a number of Roman ditches were noted besides later disturbance from the 20th century construction. The ditches were roughly dated to the Roman period, by poorly diagnostic sherds, but tied up with various features previously noted in the area in previous archaeological monitoring: an evaluation and excavation to the west and an evaluation to the north. The features identified represent early Roman ditches probably filled in by the 2nd century AD and then a second phase of Roman activity represented by two roadside ditches and the beamslots and posthole of a structure lying adjacent to the ditched road. Less significantly the remains of a post-medieval roadside ditch were noted and also the remains of structures dated to the 20th century. |
