Abstract: |
Headland Archaeology undertook archaeological excavation of a site on land to the south east of Tewkesbury, ahead of the construction of a 275 dwelling housing development. The excavation entailed the stripping of 4.2ha of previously agricultural land. The excavation revealed evidence for previous agricultural use of the area. This included evidence of at least two phases of medieval field systems, which overlie an earlier Romano-British field system. The site was also crossed by an extensive post-medieval ridge and furrow system, which truncated these earlier systems. |
