Abstract: |
This Rapid Appraisal in response to a request from Bristol Water in advance of impending engineering works has identified that the proposed route comprises two sections only of a new water main extending both along and to the E of Warren Lane, on the eastern edge of the settlement of Long Ashton and approximately 100m SE of the eastern boundary of the Roman walled settlement and associated field system at Gatcombe (designated as a Scheduled Ancient Monument). Earthworks possibly representing field enclosures associated with a deserted medieval settlement at Fenswood have also been identified in the field immediately to the N of the study area. The potential for encountering archaeological deposits and features on the route of the proposed pipeline has therefore been assessed as moderate, based on the fact that, while the two sections of pipeline considered here are limited in length, they are located in relatively close proximity to the Roman settlement at Gatcombe and earthworks possibly associated with a deserted medieval settlement and field system. |
