Abstract:		 Border Archaeology Limited was commissioned by Rooftop Housing to carry out a programme of archaeological field evaluation of the former Gardiners Bros. premises at No. 1 Alvin Street Gloucester GL1 3EJ in advance of a residential development. The location had been subject to previous archaeological investigations revealing evidence of Roman and post- Roman remains. Three trenches were excavated on the site, all of which contained deposits and features dated to the Roman period. These were encountered at a depth of between 1.20m (Trench 3) and 1.40m (Trench 1) beneath the existing surface. A number of cut features and a burial were identified, the burial being among the latest of the sequence of Roman deposits encountered on the site. A substantial dump, probably of industrial waste, was found in Trench 3 and might relate to a small kiln or furnace located in or close to the trench. Hammerscale was found in the majority of the features on the site and its presence attests to ironworking on or close to the site in the Roman period.
