Abstract:
Seven trenches for engineering and geotechnical investigations were dug around the outside of the building now known as the Apprentice Store at De Montalt Mill, Bath (ST7622 6200). These were placed against the walls of the building to expose the footings. They were monitored and controlled archaeologically and, in addition,two areas on the north side of the building were cleared archaeologically to investigate the metalled yard believed to have existed here. The trenches showed that the cobbled yard existed and that it postdated the construction of Building 1c, the latest part of the complex on the north side. It was laid on a thick deposit of quarry waste which pre-dated the same building, but post-dated the earlier parts. The footings were typical masonry strip foundations set in a trench dug into the fullers' earth clay, forming the subsoil here. The cleared areas showed that the cobbled yard was quite roughly laid in medium sized cobbles with well-cut pennant sandstone block gutters along side the Apprentice store and running across the yard as well. The gutters showed much wear in front of cart shed doors and where they extended into the central roadway on the east of the Apprentice Store. No dating evidence was found other than 20th century rubbish on or near the surface, which was discarded.
