Abstract: Border Archaeology was commissioned to undertake archaeological work at No. 15 Ashcroft Gardens, Cirencester, GL7 1RD Gloucestershire.The purpose of this test pit evaluation was to assess the nature of archaeological remains and to indicate any mitigation requirements following the evaluation. Of the two trenches excavated, trench 2 revealed substantial archaeological remains including a large stone wall. This wall and its associated deposits can be considered as highly significant to the Roman fabric of Cirencester; especially when considering that Roman bath house and a series of private dwellings with mosaics were found within a 50m radius of the trench.
