Abstract:		 An archaeological excavation was undertaken by Cotswold Archaeology during groundworks associated with redevelopment of the former Tesco retail store as a garden centre on land at Mendip Avenue, Shepton Mallet, Somerset. The site is located within the Roman small town of Fosse Lane and has previously been investigated through geophysical survey and trial trenching in 1990 and excavation in 1996. During the excavation, three areas were investigated. A Roman bank was identified within Area 1 and a Roman pit and ditch were identified within Area 2. These results are consistent with those of the previous archaeological works and provide further evidence on the nature of the Roman land divisions and land use within the site.
