Day to day shopping can be found at Ashton Keynes, Cricklade, Cirencester or Malmesbury which are all within a short distance. Cirencester in particular offers a Waitrose supermarket, a wide range of boutique shops and a twice weekly market. For commuters, the M4 is accessed at junction 16 (Swindon West about 15 miles) and a mainline rail station at Kemble on the Paddington line (about 5 miles). The M5 at junction 11A is 25 miles. There are numerous footpaths and bridleways in the locality to enjoy the countryside and in particular various aquatic sports can be enjoyed at the nearby Cotswold Water Park. Other sporting activities include golf at Oaksey, South Cerney and Cirencester, premiership rugby at Kingsholm Gloucester and various equestrian pursuits locally. DESCRIPTION Built originally in the mid-19th century as a two-storey one-bedroom cottage for the local Methodist minister, Chapel House has been substantially extended three times in the mid-to-late 20th century to now form a superb and very well-proportioned family home. It has also been extensively enhanced by our clients, including the installation in 2015 of a new condensing oil-fired boiler, programmer and water tank, and the fitting in 2018 of attractive lead-lined new double-glazed windows and external doors throughout, to provide the perfect family layout & character for modern day family living. The ground floor accommodation includes an enclosed porch leading into an attractive entrance hall, a cloakroom/storage room, and a very spacious open plan area with a large sitting room which flows perfectly into the dining room, making this the perfect house for entertaining. The rear of the sitting room area also features a wood-burner stove in a large stone fireplace surround. In addition there is a separate snug or study at the front of the house. To the side and rear of the ground floor there is a stunning open plan kitchen/ breakfast room which complete with views over the attractive garden offers the perfect modern family space. The kitchen area comes complete with a matching range of floor and wall mounted units, a central island, granite worktops, Egyptian limestone flooring and includes an integrated double oven, induction hob & extractor fan, fridge/freezer, dishwasher, and a water softening system. The kitchen area also provides ample space for a separate breakfast area. At the rear of the house is also a spacious and fully refurbished utility room area and a separate toilet. On the first floor there are five well-proportioned double bedrooms (one of which is currently used as an additional sitting room) and a smaller single bedroom currently used as a store room. Three of the bedrooms have fitted or walk-in wardrobes and there are also three bathrooms (two of which are en-suite to bedrooms) all of which have been beautifully fitted. The entire house has a wonderful feeling of space, charm, relaxation and natural light throughout. OUTSIDE There is a detached double garage (part of which accommodates a separate room currently used for storage of garden furniture and other items), a separate and elegant octagonal summerhouse at the rear of the large garden area, and a spacious garden shed for the storage of mowers and garden tools etc. With gravel driveways on both sides of the property there is also ample parking for several cars. The garden area and grounds are of particular merit and offer complete privacy with a range of lawned areas, attractively planted borders and mature trees. Leading to the garden there is also a large paved terrace and patio area which lends itself perfectly to Al Fresco dining & socialising with family and friends.

  • The Iron Age Tom Moore
    The Iron Age Tom Moore INTRODUCfiON In the twenty years since Alan Saville's (1984) review of the Iron Age in Gloucestershire much has happened in Iron-Age archaeology, both in the region and beyond.1 Saville's paper marked an important point in Iron-Age studies in Gloucestershire and was matched by an increasing level of research both regionally and nationally. The mid 1980s saw a number of discussions of the Iron Age in the county, including those by Cunliffe (1984b) and Darvill (1987), whilst reviews were conducted for Avon (Burrow 1987) and Somerset (Cunliffe 1982). At the same time significant advances and developments in British Iron-Age studies as a whole had a direct impact on how the period was viewed in the region. Richard Hingley's (1984) examination of the Iron-Age landscapes of Oxfordshire suggested a division between more integrated unenclosed communities in the Upper Thames Valley and isolated enclosure communities on the Cotswold uplands, arguing for very different social systems in the two areas. In contrast, Barry Cunliffe' s model ( 1984a; 1991 ), based on his work at Danebury, Hampshire, suggested a hierarchical Iron-Age society centred on hillforts directly influencing how hillforts and social organisation in the Cotswolds have been understood (Darvill1987; Saville 1984). Together these studies have set the agenda for how the 1st millennium BC in the region is regarded and their influence can be felt in more recent syntheses (e.g. Clarke 1993). Since 1984, however, our perception of Iron-Age societies has been radically altered. In particular, the role of hillforts as central places at the top of a hierarchical settlement pattern has been substantially challenged (Hill 1996).

  • Groundwell Ridge Villa Analysis Project
    Groundwell Ridge Villa Analysis Project. Pr 3641 April 2008 (Update 7) One of the most fundamental elements for the understanding of any archaeological site must be the pottery finds, and Groundwell Ridge was no exception. As a result of the site’s heavy disturbance by early stone robbers and the later attempted road construction, pottery was one of the first ways that we could ‘spot-date’ some of the elements of the building. Once we had a basic chronology for the site, educated guesses could be made about the phasing of the structure. A stamp on the base of a Samian vessel from the potter ‘Reburrus’ who worked in the Central Gaulish potteries around 145 -175 AD A large variety of pottery was recovered from the site of all types and of all dates within the Roman Period. The pottery can be initially divided into two basic types which are, Finewares and Coarsewares. Finewares include the well known red hued Samian Ware which was the ‘best’ pottery for use for serving and on the table. The second category is the Coarsewares which were the everyday pottery of the non-villa owning populace, or in the context of a villa, probably the pottery that would have been used for food preparation, cooking, or storage. The individual styles of decoration found on the fineware have very limited life spans, much like some of today’s designs and from these we can not only tell the date it was made, but also where in the Empire it came from, and if you are very lucky, sometimes a fragment is found that has the name of the potter on it.
