Abstract: |
Wessex Archaeology was commissioned by LXB RP (Gloucester) Limited to carry out an archaeological evaluation and borehole survey on land at Metz Way, Gloucester, GL4 6SW. Six evaluation trenches and four boreholes were undertaken during the evaluation. No archaeological features of a pre-19th century date were recorded within the evaluation trenches. The depth of made ground ranged from between 0.90m and 1.55m below ground level (BGL) within the evaluation trenches. Four boreholes were drilled using a shell and auger rig, and located in the eastern half of the Site. The boreholes recorded made ground to a depth of 4.80m BGL. Natural clay was recorded below the made ground, in both the evaluation trenches and the boreholes, but may be at too greater depth to be impacted upon by any of the proposed development within the Site. |
