One undated possible stakehole or posthole was identified during the groundworks. No other archaeological features were identified. Artefactual material dating from the Roman to Post- medieval period was recovered from the topsoil. 2 © Cotswold Archaeology Land at Swinhay House, North Nibley, Gloucestershire: Archaeological Watching Brief 1. INTRODUCTION 1.1 In May 2008 Cotswold Archaeology (CA) carried out an archaeological watching brief for Swinhay Developments Ltd at Swinhay House, North Nibley, Gloucestershire (centred on NGR: ST 7269 9347; Fig. 1). The watching brief was undertaken to fulfil a condition attached to a planning consent for the construction of a lake (Planning ref: S00/391). The objective of the watching brief was to record all archaeological remains exposed during the development. 1.2 The watching brief was carried out in accordance with a detailed Written Scheme of Investigation (WSI) produced by CA (2008) and approved by Mr Charles Parry, Senior Archaeological officer for Gloucestershire County Council and advisor to Stroud District council,. The fieldwork also followed the Standard and Guidance for an Archaeological Watching Brief issued by the Institute for Archaeologists (IfA 2008), the Statement of Standards and Practices Appropriate for Archaeological Field work in Gloucestershire (GCC 1996) and the Management of Research Projects in the Historic Environment (MoRPHE; English Heritage 2006). The site 1.3 The site is located 2.5km to the south-west of North Nibley and comprises approximately 3ha of farm land (Fig. 2). It lies at approximately 41m AOD, with no major variations in level. 1.4 The underlying solid geology of the area is mapped as lower lias clay of the Jurassic period (BGS 1970). This was observed during the groundworks. In the north-west end of Trench 1, limestone brash in a clay matrix was also encountered. Archaeological background 1.5 A desk-based assessment of the Swinhay estate suggested that clearance and settlement of land at Swinhay occurred during the historic period, but not clearly before the 13th century (Stephenson 2000). Subsequent geophysical survey identified no anomalies of probable archaeological origin within areas examined, and evaluation trenching identified no archaeological features within Areas I and II or that part of Area III targeted by trenches 8 and 10 (WYAS 2000; Nichols 2001). 3 © Cotswold Archaeology Land at Swinhay House, North Nibley, Gloucestershire: Archaeological Watching Brief Evaluation trench 9, however, revealed an east/west aligned ditch, which yielded undated fragments of fired clay and a posthole from which one sherd of early prehistoric or pre/early Romano-British date was recovered (CA 2008). Methodology 1.6 The fieldwork followed the methodology set out within the WSI (CA 2008). An archaeologist was present during intrusive groundworks, comprising the controlled strip of a central area (Trench 1; Fig. 2) under direct archaeological supervision to the top of the natural substrate or archaeological level. Due to a change in construction methodology for the proposed lake, whereby soil banks would be built up around the central area by importing soil, further deep excavation was abandoned. Topsoil stripping operations were monitored across the remaining area of the lake. 1.7 Where archaeological deposits were encountered written, graphic and photographic records were compiled in accordance with CA Technical Manual 1: Fieldwork Recording Manual (2007). 1.8 The archive and artefacts from the watching brief are currently held by CA at their offices in Kemble. The artefacts, which derive solely from the topsoil, have been recorded and discarded. The site archive will be deposited with The Museum in the Park, Stroud under accession number STGM 2005/36. A summary of information from this project, set out within Appendix C, will be entered onto the OASIS online database of archaeological projects in Britain. 2. RESULTS (FIG. 2) 2.1 The natural geological substrate, 103, consisting of clay and limestone brash was revealed in Trench 1 at an average depth of 0.5m below present ground level (BPGL). A possible stakehole or posthole, 105, and a small burnt patch, 106, were identified in the western end of trench 1. No dating material was recovered. To the east of this a seam of natural clay, interpreted as a possible ditch (7) in a previous evaluation, was identified (Nichols 2001, Fig. 4). This was overlain by subsoil 102, 0.25m thick, which was in turn covered by topsoil 101, 0.25m thick. 4 © Cotswold Archaeology Land at Swinhay House, North Nibley, Gloucestershire: Archaeological Watching Brief 2.2 Observation of topsoil stripping to an average depth of 0.25m over the remaining areas of the lake, undertaken prior to the deposition of imported soil to form the lake banks, revealed no archaeological features, although some residual Roman pottery was recovered (see 2.3 below). The finds 2.3 Quantities of pottery, ceramic building material, metalwork and oyster shells were recovered during topsoil stripping (Appendix B). A total of five sherds of Roman pottery consisting of greywares and Severn Valley ware, was recovered. The Roman material is residual, being present alongside three sherds of glazed earthenware of post-medieval type. The ceramic building material consists of a couple of sherds of ceramic drain pipe, and flat roof tile, consistent with post- medieval dating. These finds have been recorded and discarded. 3. DISCUSSION 3.1 The watching brief identified only one undated possible posthole in the western end of trench 1. This may be associated with activity dating from the prehistoric and Roman period indicated in the previous evaluation and desk-based assessment (see archaeological background). The presence of further archaeological deposits, suggested by the recovery of a small amount of Roman pottery from the topsoil, may have been masked by the overlying subsoil and topsoil. 4. CA PROJECT TEAM Fieldwork was undertaken by Tim Havard and Neil Wright. The report was written by Jonathan Bennett. The illustrations were prepared by Lorna Gray. The archive has been compiled by Victoria Taylor, and prepared for deposition by Victoria Taylor. The project was managed for CA by Simon Cox 5 © Cotswold Archaeology Land at Swinhay House, North Nibley, Gloucestershire: Archaeological Watching Brief 5.

  • October 2017 Issue 236
    OCTOBER 2017 ISSUE 236 ON THE EDGE Footpaths, Bridleways and Tracks There are over 9,500 public rights of way (PROWs) in Gloucestershire. Government cuts have resulted in a significant reduction in the capacity of the rights of way team to fulfil their obligations but the Gloucestershire County Council public rights of way team are responsible for: • providing information about the routes of public paths, • recording PROWs on the Definitive Map, • processing 'public path orders' and 'modification orders', • maintaining the surface of PROWs, • maintaining most bridges over natural watercourses, • roadside signposting and way-marking, • making sure that public paths are reasonably convenient for the public to use. Your rights of way include: • public footpaths, • public bridleways, • restricted byways, • Byways open to all traffic. Public footpaths can be used on foot only (with a pram, pushchair or wheelchair where it is practicable to do so *), with a dog under close control. Public bridleways also allow horse riders and cyclists (cyclists must give way to walkers and horse riders). Restricted byways can be used by any transport without a motor. * and mobility scooters and powered wheelchairs. Note: users may take an alternative route around an obstruction or remove enough of the obstruction to get past. Ordnance Survey maps show most public rights of way but may not be up to date. In the parish of North Nibley, as in most of England, public footpaths are way-marked with yellow arrows and bridleways with blue arrows. What may seem to be a single path may be made up of sections with different designations.

  • Introduction the Parish of North Nibley
    Introduction This Parish Plan was developed in response to the government’s proposal that rural communities should produce plans "to indicate how they would like their town or village to develop". It was suggested that funding decisions by the district and county councils should take account of these plans. A Survey Questionnaire was prepared and distributed to all households in the Parish, to which 63% responded. An additional questionnaire was included specifically for 7-18 year olds. Gloucestershire Rural Communities Council analysed the replies and the results were presented to the Annual Parish Meeting in 2009. The results were also made available to parishioners and Parish organisations. The results and additional feedback from Parish consultations, to which all residents were invited, were used by a volunteer Steering Group of North Nibley residents to assist them to develop this Plan. The plan identifies issues and concerns of parishioners highlighted through the Survey and consultation meetings. It provides a guide to future actions by the community, the Parish, District and County Councils and external agencies. The Parish of North Nibley North Nibley is an attractive village on the edge of the Cotswolds, located close to the river Severn between Bristol and Gloucester. Its name means a farm or settlement on a hilltop. The first record is in the register known as Cartularium Saxonicum in 940 AD as 'hnibban lege'. The village is famously associated with William Tyndale who translated much of the Bible into English. The Tyndale Monument, erected in 1866, is a conspicuous feature on the hill above the village. The Parish was also the scene of the last battle fought in England on 20th March 1469/70, between the private armies of Thomas, Lord Lisle and William, Lord Berkeley at Nibley Green with combined forces of more than 1,000 men.

  • Picks Mill, Road Green, North Nibley, GL11 6BA
    Picks Mill, Road Green, North Nibley, GL11 6BA Road Green, North Nibley, Dursley Picks Mill is a beautiful and spacious stone built former mill believed to date back in part to the 12th century. Situated in its own mature grounds, understood to be approaching 1.7 acres approx. set back from the road approached via a private tree lined driveway with Doverte Brook flanking the rear boundary. In addition to the five bedroomed main house, there is a separate charming detached stone cottage providing options for granny annexe, independent teenager or income from rental letting. This is the first time this property has come to the market in 30 years when the current owners acquired the property and they have carried out extensive renovations and improvements, however there is still tremendous potential on offer with basements rooms and outbuildings for conversion or inclusion into the living accommodation (subject to building regulations and approval). Located on the edge of North Nibley close to the Stinchcombe borders, the area is surrounded by scenic farmland forming part of an area of outstanding natural beauty. Although extremely private, the property is not isolated with the village of North Nibley being less than 1 mile approx. away. The gardens and grounds include a paddock area and natural landscaping forming a habitat for wildlife and a haven for birds which can be seen feeding from a balcony area to the rear. It is thought that the mill had stood on this site since the 12th century formerly known as Mundy Mill a wool mill then owned by Giles Pick in the 1870's when it was used as a grist mill.
