Abstract:		 An archaeological evaluation was undertaken by Cotswold Archaeology in July and August 2013 at Winchcombe Abbey, Winchcombe, Gloucestershire. Eleven trenches were excavated. Although no Roman features were encountered, residual Romano-British pottery and roof and flue-tile fragments may indicate Roman activity within the vicinity of the site. No artefacts, structures or deposits of recognisably Anglo-Saxon date were found. Deposits and structures of medieval and later date were encountered, including a wall footing and flooring, or floor foundation deposits, in Trenches 1 and 9 which may identify former abbey buildings running southward from the extant building now known as Winchcombe Abbey. The identification of structural remains south of the existing house correlates well with the results of a preceding desk-based assessment and ground penetrating radar survey. Dumps of fragmentary limestone and mortar in Trenches 7 and 11 may reflect post-Dissolution demolition activity within the site, whilst ditches within Trenches 6 and 7 may represent later boundaries, although no clear correlation could be detected between their positions and a boundary denoted on the 1883 OS first edition map. A small number of undated features were also recorded, comprising two postholes within Trench 3, a stone spread in Trench 4, a cut feature partially exposed in Trench 8, an east/west-aligned ditch in Trench 10 and cut features in Trench 13.
