Abstract:		 The watching brief comprised the observation by a competent archaeologist of all intrusive groundworks associated with the proposed development. These works comprised the machine excavation of three soakaways and associated service trenches . The soakaways were planned to measure c. 1.5m in length and c. 1.5m in width. However, Trench 102 was increased in size and reduced in depth so that the identified archaeological remains could be preserved in situ. In March 2021, Cotswold Archaeology carried out an archaeological watching brief during groundworks associated with the excavation of three soakaways at Cirencester Primary School, Victoria Road, Cirencester, Gloucestershire. A mortar and metalled limestone surface was identified in the northern-most soakaway c. 0.73m below present ground level (bpgl). This is potentially Roman Intramural Street D which was predicted to be within this area. The two soakaways to the south contained Roman demolition deposits at c. 0.95m bpgl. Both the surface and the demolition deposits were sealed by ‘dark earth’ deposits which were in turn overlain by topsoil.
