Abstract:

Deposits were excavated at three locations and artefacts were recovered from a number of fields along the pipeline. RB pottery, probably third/fourth century domestic farmstead material, was recovered from two converging ditches at Norton. At George Billington Lock, alluvial deposits and associated environmental remains were recorded. Adjacent to the lock a WWII pillbox and tank traps were identified. These are believed to have formed part of a series of anti-invasion defences constructed along the River Avon in the summer of 1940. Deposits at South Littleton were limited in scope but included medieval and post-medieval material.
