Abstract:
An archaeological evaluation was undertaken by Cotswold Archaeology in July 2015 at Redland Airfield. Twenty-nine trenches were excavated. Across the western part of site, a small number of Mesolithic and Neolithic worked flints were recovered. In the central area of site, focused on Trenches 18 and 19, there was evidence for Middle Iron Age occupation, although it is currently unclear how many of the ditches in this area date to this period. To the west of the site, on the northern side of the Roman road Ermin Street, a number of ditches and posable rectilinear enclosures were seen in both the geophysical survey and evaluation. These date from the Roman to medieval periods, although currently there is no clear idea as to the development of the area. In the centre of this area were two possibly three large late medieval pit or quarries. Mid-16th to 18th century ridge and furrow covered most of the site.
