Abstract:
An archaeological watching brief was undertaken by Cotswold Archaeology during groundworks associated with the reconstruction of a retaining wall at 68-72 Abbey Row, Malmesbury, Wiltshire. Health and safety considerations precluded close examination of the exposed deposits. The earliest encountered layers may have been the natural substrate or rampart deposits. These were overlain by two thin possible redeposited natural layers, which might be rampart deposits or associated with post-medieval dumping. Overlying these were thick dumped deposits most likely to represent levelling associated with the construction of the Abbey Row properties from the late 18th century onwards. The wall itself post-dated these deposits and would therefore appear to be a post-medieval rebuild. With the exception of a layer of wall collapse which contained modern finds, all of these deposits remained undated.
