Abstract:
Archaeological excavation and recording (watching brief) was carried out at Redwood, Stoke Park Road South, Bristol during January and April 2015 respectively. Planning consent for redevelopment of this site was granted subject to targeted excavation prior to development and an archaeological watching brief during ground works. The most significant archaeological feature in the area is the surviving remains of a Roman road (Via Julia) that runs across Durdham Down. This road believed to be part of a route linking Abona at modern Sea Mills with Aqua Sulis (Bath) is conjectured on historic maps to pass through the Redwood site. Despite the absence of any firm dating evidence excavation in 2015 confirmed the projected alignment taken from cartographic sources (OS 1885) and evidence derived from previous investigative work to the south-east in 1999 and 2001. What could be interpreted as the remains of physically deposited road material was a stone spread recorded in the south-eastern corner of the excavation surviving as a small isolated layer of variously sized and shaped closely laid stones; their rounded/worn nature pointing to sustained wear/erosion. These were set within the subsoil layer, a thin relict deposit of reddish-brown clay overlying the natural bedrock and a similar stratigraphic sequence was recorded in 1899 and 2001.
