Abstract: |
Report on Archaeological watching Brief at Land at the Former Luckwell Club and Scout Hut Site, Luckwell Road, Bedminster, Bristol during groundworks. During excavation for house footings at the north-eastern side of the site, fronting onto the eastern side of Luckwell Road, the only discovery of note was a modern brick-lined well. The major finding was at the south-western end of the site, with the discovery of walls and surfaces, with the latter substantially below modern street level, which appear to relate to a small group of apparently non-domestic structures recorded on the Bedminster tithe map in the mid-19th century. The various walls identified defined two spaces, one long and relatively narrow, and immediately to its north-west, a far smaller, square space. Butting relationships and other characteristics indicate that this structure was almost certainly of a single build, secondary to the main historic boundary wall. These buildings at the western end of a garden belonging to a large house which formerly stood at the north-western corner of the scout hut site. By the late 19th century, this little complex included a small glasshouse. Both the house and its outbuildings had gone by 1920. Their nature is somewhat problematic, and it is possible they underwent a change of use, but it is most likely that they were garden structures or stabling |
