Abstract:
A programme of archaeological monitoring during bore-hole soil sampling prior to the construction of an access ramp was undertaken for the Gloucester Music Library, Gloucester. During the archaeological monitoring, four bore-hole samples were taken. The natural lias clay was recorded in all four samples at an average depth of 4m below ground level. The natural was overlain by alluvial deposits which were sealed by possible Roman construction/demolition levels. Above this deposit was a thick layer of dark brown sandy silt similar to post Roman 'dark earths' recorded in previous excavations close to the site. Possible post Roman construction and demolition layers were represented by limestone rubble succeeded by red brick rubble. Modern make up layers and topsoil was recorded at the top of all four samples. [Au(adp)]
