Abstract:
A community archaeological excavation was undertaken at Soudley Camp, Soudley, Gloucestershire (NGR SO 6616 1058). The excavation was managed and supervised by Worcestershire Archaeology (part of Worcestershire Archive and Archaeology Service), and carried out by 32 local volunteers as part of a five year Heritage Lottery Funded Landscape Partnership Programme called the Foresters' Forest. Soudley Camp is a Scheduled Monument and is currently owned and maintained by the Forestry Commission in line with a management agreement agreed with Gloucestershire County Council Archaeology Service. The site is poorly understood. No excavations are known to have taken place, and the only previous archaeological investigation was an earthwork survey by Dean Archaeological Group in 2000. A metal detectorist was noted to have excavated 20 small holes in the site in 1994 but no finds or features were reported. As a result of this lack of work at the site, even baseline information such as the date and function of the monument have not been established, and interpretations have been based almost entirely on morphology. It has been interpreted as a small Iron Age defended settlement, or possibly a very small hillfort, although the suggestion that it represents the remains of an early Norman fortification has also been published.
