Abstract: |
Reports on work at Crandon Bridge, in Somerset '” including excavations in advance of the construction of the M5 motorway '” that appears to have acted as a trans-shipment port where goods brought by road and river through Somerset were loaded onto larger vessels that could cross the Bristol Channel. Analysis of the buildings and artefacts suggests that this extensive site may also have been a small town. |
