Abstract:
Border Archaeology Limited performed an Archaeological Field Evaluation in 2016 and an Archaeological Standing Building Recording in 2017 at the Former Norville Factory Site, Tarrington Road, Tredworth, Gloucester. Border Archaeology Ltd was instructed by Markey Construction to undertake a programme of Archaeological Field Evaluation on the site of the former Norville Factory Tarrington Road Tredworth Gloucester. The site was originally established in 1885 to accommodate the Hatherley Step Works producing furniture and patented 'lattice' stepladders, which, by the late 19th century, had achieved worldwide distribution. The site was occupied by the Gloster Aircraft Company During the Second World War and latterly by the Norville Optical Company Limited. Structural remains presumed to have been associated with the original factory premises, including footings and pipework, were recorded. No other deposits or features of archaeological significance were encountered, although pottery and clay tobacco pipe recovered during the course of the work indicated that, until the construction of the Hatherley Step Works in the latter part of the 19th century, the site had been under cultivation. A single flint flake recovered from the subsoil in Trench 3 had suffered heavy post-depositional damage and could not be dated.
