Abstract:
An archaeological evaluation was undertaken at Wotton Road, Charfield, Gloucestershire (NGR ST 372830 192320). It was undertaken on behalf of CgMs Consulting whose client intends to construct a residential development for which a planning application has been submitted. Seventeen trenches were excavated across the site, which is bounded to the north and east by the Little Avon River, and slopes down from the south-west to form a small flood plain along the northeastern side. Colluvial deposits were identified at the bottom of the north-eastern and southeastern slopes. A small number of isolated and dispersed pits and ditches were identified and excavated. None yielded any dateable artefacts, though their general characteristics suggested a low level medieval or post-medieval agricultural origin. One pit had the potential to be a prehistoric hearth, as it was sealed by the subsoil and contained fired clay, however no firm dating evidence was recovered. No other features, layers, structures or finds of archaeological significance were identified.
