Holy Trinity Church, Watermoor, Cirencester, Gloucestershire. An Archaeological Watching Brief Report (OASIS ID: urbanarc1-289653)

Abstract

Watching brief on the excavation of a new water pipe connection pit within the churchyard, west of the church. A homogenous 'Dark Earth' type deposit was recorded to a depth of 0.9m bpgl within the pit. Most of the pit had been previously disturbed by trenches for two water pipes and the impact of the excavation on undisturbed archaeological remains was minimal. The presence of Dark Earth adds to similar observations from many nearby archaeological interventions
