Horcott Quarry, Fairford and Arkell’s Land, Kempsford - Prehistoric, Roman and Anglo-Saxon Settlement and Burial in the Upper Thames Valley in Gloucestershi

Excavations at Horcott revealed Mesolithic activity, a major Iron Age settlement with exceptional grain‑storage structures, a Roman farmstead, a 3rd–4th‑century cemetery, and a large Anglo‑Saxon settlement. Nearby Arkell’s land saw only Roman‑period enclosures and fields, likely linked to Claydon Pike, and no later occupation.
