Abstract: |
An archaeological evaluation was undertaken at Fleet Lane, Twyning, Gloucestershire (NGR SO 903 367). It was commissioned by CgMs Consulting, on behalf of their client, in advance of a proposed residential development for which a planning application has been submitted. Prior to the evaluation, a heritage assessment identified the potential for the survival of archaeological remains dating to the early medieval to post-medieval periods. A detailed geophysical survey failed to identify potential archaeological features. Consultation with Gloucestershire County Council established the requirement for evaluation of an initial 2% of the site. Six trenches were excavated, identifying four potential archaeological features cutting the natural substrate. However the sterility of the material filling these features indicated they are of agricultural origin and not associated with any settlement or other, more intensive, forms of activity. No evidence of any datable archaeological activity was identified and no artefacts were recovered. |
