TVAS Reading: Excavations at Down Ampney, Wiltshire

Ongoing quarry works in the Cotswolds have allowed us to excavate large swathes of land and build a picture of the landscape over a significant area.

One of the many quarries that we excavate in the Cotswolds is a site at Down Ampney. The site connects with many of the other areas, such as Latton, which have been excavated and reported on.
