Abstract: |
An archaeological watching brief was undertaken by Headland Archaeology (UK) Ltd on land at Hardwicke, Gloucestershire, in advance of the construction of a sewerage pipeline. The investigation identified the remains of a Roman Road, likely to be the former Sea Mills to Gloucester Road. Features suggestive of occupation during the Saxo-Norman period were identified and a density of ditches, probably related to agriculture and land division of the Saxo-Norman and medieval periods were also recorded. Remains, tentatively suggesting the presence of a sunken floored building dating to the medieval period were identified, with relatively large quantities of pottery recovered indicative of occupation of the Saxo-Norman and medieval periods in the immediate vicinity. |
