Abstract:
The fieldwork comprised the excavation of 12 trenches (all measuring 1.8m in width and 30m in length). An archaeological evaluation was undertaken by Cotswold Archaeology in June 2018 on land south of Poplar Lane, Wickwar, South Gloucestershire. Twelve trenches were excavated. A single undated ditch was recorded during the evaluation. The ditch does not align with modern or historic boundaries, or with adjacent ridge and furrow cultivation remains, hence the date and function of the ditch remains uncertain. The site lies within the agricultural hinterland of the medieval village of Wickwar and further ridge and furrow cultivation identified in the western part of the site during the evaluation, is indicative of the agricultural use of the site at this time. Two sherds of pottery dating to the 11th to 14th centuries were recovered from subsoil deposits.
