Abstract:
The desk-based assessment showed that the application area had been agricultural land until 1949. The field containing the site, described as pasture, had been on the same boundaries since at least 1827 and probably from its original enclosure. Prior to the building of the original Methodist Mission Hall in 1949, the site had seen little disturbance since at least 1827, but further ground disturbance took place with the building of the new church in 1958. The remainder of the application area had remained undeveloped, although there was some visual evidence to suggest that it might have been cultivated as a garden. To the Southeast, the Roman occupation extended at least as far as Hengrove Way, but no evidence had been found to define its northern limit. Novers Lane could be shown to date from at least 1827 and probably represented a much older route. The OS plans showed a quarry on the east side of Novers Lane opposite the site. The existence of the fieldname 'Quar Ground' as early as 1827 suggested that the quarrying activities probably dated from the 18th century or earlier. [Au(adp)]
