Abstract: |
Headland Archaeology (UK) Ltd, undertook a geophysical (magnetometer) survey, covering approximately 2 hectares, to inform planning proposals for a proposed sewer pipeline for the Gloucester South Sewerage Growth project at Hardwicke, Gloucestershire. The survey has not identified any anomalies of definite archaeological potential. A cluster of low magnitude anomalies, close to the projected route of a Roman road (Gloucestershire Historic Environment Record 7365) are ascribed moderate archaeological potential, perhaps locating road-side activity, although no clear pattern is discernible within the narrow survey corridor. Elsewhere, anomalies have been identified which are due field drains and to localised variations in the depth and composition of the soils. Therefore, on the basis of the geophysical survey, the archaeological potential of the majority of the proposed pipeline is assessed as low but locally moderate in the vicinity of the projected route of the Roman road. |
