Abstract:		 An archaeological watching brief was undertaken at Chipping Campden School, Cider Mill Lane, Chipping Campden, Gloucestershire (NGR SP 15561 39774). It was undertaken on behalf of S and C Slatter Ltd (the Client) who were constructing an artificial turf pitch with floodlighting and associated retaining walls at the school. Permission for the development (planning ref: 09/01475/FUL) was granted by Cotswold District Council subject to conditions including a programme of archaeological works and a brief setting out the requirement for an archaeological watching brief was produced by Gloucestershire County Council. The site lies close to a Scheduled Monument known as Campden House, the remains of a 17th Century building with associated gardens and outbuildings which was destroyed during the Civil War. Crop mark evidence of a prehistoric and/or Roman ring-ditch or enclosure has been noted to the northeast of the site. A geophysical survey (Stratascan 2009) was carried out prior to the geotechnical test pits and topsoil strip. The results provided weak evidence for archaeological activity in the form of two positive anomalies and evidence for ridge and furrow. The watching brief comprised monitoring of geotechnical test pits associated with the development and the topsoil and subsoil strip in the footprint of the pitch. A series of post-medieval and modern drainage ditches were recorded which were interpreted as agricultural features but no features of archaeological significance were recorded.
