Spring Cottage, English Bricknor, Gloucestershire

In September 2005, OA carried out an archaeological watching brief at Spring Cottage, English Bricknor, Gloucestershire (NGR SO 582 157). The work was commissioned by landowner Mrs E Holt in advance of the topsoil stripping of a new menage to the north of the cottage. The watching brief revealed natural sandy silt sealed by a probable ploughsoil, in turn covered by the topsoil. Ridge and furrow was noted in the field where excavations took place. No archaeological features were observed.
