Abstract:
An archaeological evaluation was undertaken on land north of Southend Lane, Newent, Gloucestershire (NGR SO 22270 25170). It was commissioned by CgMs Consulting Ltd on behalf of Robert Hitchins Ltd in advance of a proposed development. The evaluation followed the production of a desk-based assessment and geophysical survey both of which identified a low potential for the presence of archaeological remains within the site. The site consists of a single arable field on the southern edge of the town on Newent. Fifteen (50m by 1.8m) trenches and one extended trench covered an approximate area of 1504m², representing a c.2% sample of the 7.2ha site. The majority of the trenches contained no archaeological features. A ditch aligned with a former field boundary depicted on Ordnance Survey maps was recorded in two trenches to the west of the site. A ditch or elongated pit was recorded in a trench toward the centre of the site and prehistoric flint and pottery was recovered from an excavated section of this feature. A small gully recorded within the same trench was also sampled but no dating evidence was retrieved.
