Abstract: |
An archaeological evaluation was undertaken by Cotswold Archaeology between September and November 2009 at the former 'Clutch Clinic' 6 Commercial Road, Gloucester. A total of six trenches was excavated. A watching brief was also undertaken during the removal of fuel tanks. Deposits were observed in three trenches which probably were the fills of the outer bailey ditch of the 11th-century Norman castle which previously stood to the north-west of the site. Overlying these deposits were in situ medieval walls, foundations, floor surfaces and deposits forming part of the east range of the medieval Dominican priory. The evaluation also identified post-medieval walls and floor surfaces, including evidence for the post-Dissolution use of the site as a cloth manufactory in the 16th century. Structures of the 19th-century Talbot Bottling Company and properties fronting onto Commercial Street were identified. |
