Abstract:		 Construction of a gas pipeline in 1997 between Pucklechurch, east of Bristol, and the gas-fired power station at Seabank, north of Avonmouth provided an opportunity to study an 8 km transect across the alluvial sediments of the Avonmouth Levels. The project produced a more-or-less complete record of the Holocene alluvial sediments along the route of the pipeline; boreholes were commissioned for palaeoenvironmental studies at three locations along the route and palaeoenvironmental data were also collected from excavations of a Prehistoric and Romano-British site close to Easter Compton. The results of the project allow a review of Holocene landscape evolution in the Avonmouth Levels and a re assessment of the evidence for buried soil profiles within the marine alluvium. Collation of data on soil profiles from this and other studies suggests that there are significant problems both with the identification and dating of buried soils within the alluvium.
