Abstract:		 A desk-based study was undertaken to identify the archaeological constraints on proposed development. The study indicated that the proposal area was formerly occupied by part of the defences of Bristol Castle, and that the remainder of the study area was known as the Kings Orchard. The study also indicated the presence of Civil War fortification in the immediate vicinity of, and possibly within the study area. After the Civil War, the study area was subject to urban planning and was divided into plots of land for leasing. The advent of Industrialisation saw the southern half of the study area built on by Iron foundaries, while the northern half of the study area became a main shopping thoroughfare. Most of the buildings were destroyed in 1940 by bombing. The archaeological evidence collected suggested that signifcant archaeological remains, dating to the medieval period were likely to survive in the northern half of the study area, whilst no significant deposits were thought likely to remain in the southern half of the study area.
