Abstract: |
An archaeological evaluation was undertaken at the Church of St Mary and St Peter, Tidenham, Gloucestershire (NGR ST 5566 9586). It was commissioned by Ms R Nicholls of Astam, on behalf of the Friends of Tidenham Parish Church, as part of a planning application for a proposed car park. Three trenches were excavated across the site in a grid array. The evaluation identified an undated ditch orientated approximately east to west. No finds were recovered from this feature and its origin is uncertain. The evaluation also revealed a subsoil of probable colluvial (ie natural) origin built up against the south-eastern field boundary in the lowest part of the site, which is consistent with the moderately steep topography of the site sloping down in this direction. No evidence of any other archaeological activity was identified during the evaluation and no finds were recovered during this fieldwork. |
