Abstract:
Rapid redevelopment in the centre of Bristol means that excavation work being carried out by the City Museum is being stepped up to an unprecedented level over the next few years. This article describes recent findings from several sites. At an area between Baldwin Street and King Street, a dozen buildings of 13th to 14th century date within their own tenement plots were identified. In Lewin's Mead remains of the medieval Greyfriars' establishment were recorded, including numerous burials and a remarkable collection of organic material from a garderobe. At the site of an intended research wing at the Dental Hospital, the first definite Roman settlement in Bristol was identified. Despite these important discoveries, a great deal more needs to be recovered from the centre of Bristol as little is known about the origins of the Saxon burh and the commercial expansion of the maritime city.
