Abstract:		 The watching brief comprised the observation by a competent archaeologist of all intrusive GI works categorised as having a potential conflict with known cultural heritage assets. This comprised a total of 43 separate interventions. Non-archaeologically significant deposits were removed by the GI works contractors under archaeological supervision. Where practical, mechanical excavators were fitted with toothless grading buckets, although toothed buckets and breakers were used to remove difficult deposits. Between November 2021 and April 2022, Cotswold Archaeology carried out an archaeological watching brief during ground investigation works at the proposed site of the A417 Missing Link, Gloucestershire. An undated ditch and a furrow, of likely medieval/post-medieval date, were identified during the course of the watching brief. In addition, a single sherd of Roman pottery was recovered from the subsoil within one of the test pits.
