    The Gloucester and Cheltenham Tramroad (1811-1861) Gloucestershire Society for Industrial Archaeology Gloucestershire Society for Industrial Archaeology GSIA was formed in 1963 to study and record the history and physical remains of Gloucestershire industries. The Society has more than 200 members who receive regular newsletters, an annual journal and enjoy a programme of talks, walks and outings. There are plenty of opportunities to carry out field work and research. GSIA welcomes anyone with an interest in the subject at all levels (beginners most welcome). Details of all these activities may be found on the Society website www.gsia.org.uk GSIA has had an active interest in the tramroad for a long time. Some years ago the Society marked the two ends of the main line with commemorative plaques on the Hop Pole Inn in Cheltenham and at Gloucester Docks. Fieldwork was undertaken in 1983 which uncovered blocks from a siding at the Barge Arm at Gloucester Docks. A report of the excavation, together with many other articles on industrial archaeology in Gloucestershire, can be found in the GSIA Annual Journals. These can be freely downloaded from the our website at www.gsia.org.uk/reprints.
