Abstract:
The excavation comprised two areas (Area 1 and Area 2) either side of a footpath which bisected the site; together, these amounted to 6000m2. An archaeological excavation was undertaken by Cotswold Archaeology in January and February 2020 at Land South of Lyde Green, Emerson’s Green, South Gloucestershire. The earliest remains dated to the early to mid 1st century AD when a roundhouse was constructed, accompanied by a few pits and short ditches. This was seemingly unenclosed, although an enclosure ditch containing later Roman pottery possibly originated during this earlier period. A series of enclosures were then laid out across the site, beginning in the late 1st–early 2nd centuries and continuing in use, with modifications and additions, into the 3rd century. These seem to have been associated with livestock farming, and the site probably represents part of a small farmstead. There was no evidence for continued use after the 3rd century, by which time a villa had been established at Hallen Farm, some 450m distant. It is possible that the Lyde Green site had by then become part of the villa estate, with the land re-organised, perhaps for arable farming or open grazing, activities which have left no archaeological trace within the site.
