Images and CAD from an Archaeological Evaluation and Watching Brief at Hewmar House, 120 London Road, Gloucester 2018

This collection comprises images and CAD from an archaeological evaluation and watching brief, undertaken by Cotswold Archaeology in August 2018, at Hewmar House, 120 London Road, Gloucester, Gloucestershire. Four archaeological evaluation trenches were excavated and four geotechnical test pits were observed. Despite the proximity of the site to Wotton Roman cemetery, no evidence for any in situ burials, or indeed any Roman activity, was identified in any of the excavated trenches or test pits. It is likely that the site lay beyond the southern boundary of the cemetery and formed part of the agricultural hinterland of both Roman and medieval Gloucester until the construction of Hillfield Villa (later Hewmar House) in the early 19th century. Three linear garden features, probably planting trenches, associated with Hillfield Villa and a large undated ditch were identified. Evidence for possible quarrying was also identified throughout the site

本数据集包含由科茨沃尔德考古公司（Cotswold Archaeology）于2018年8月在格洛斯特郡格洛斯特市伦敦路120号休默宅邸（Hewmar House）开展的考古评估与考古监视发掘相关的影像与计算机辅助设计（CAD）文件。本次工作共开挖4座考古评估探沟，并布设观测了4座岩土工程探坑。尽管该遗址紧邻伍顿罗马墓地，但所有探沟与探坑均未发现原位墓葬或任何罗马时期活动的相关遗存。推测该遗址位于该墓地南侧边界之外，在19世纪初希爾菲尔德别墅（后更名为休默宅邸）建成前，一直属于罗马时期与中世纪格洛斯特的农业腹地范围。本次工作还发现了3处与希爾菲尔德别墅相关的线性园林遗存（推测为种植槽），以及一处年代不明的大型壕沟。遗址全域还发现了疑似采石作业的相关遗存。
