Abstract: |
The site was used in the 19th century as stables, belonging to the Royal Crescent. The majority of the 18th century floors, 19th century additions and elements of the structure were all found to be preserved below the existing concrete floor. A prehistoric ground level was also identified, overlain by subsoils and a soil horizon containing artefacts from the Roman occupation to the 18th century. The metalled surface of a Roman Road was identified, this was thought to be the missing River Avon to the Bath to Sea Mills road link of the Fosse Way. Burials were not discovered but were still thought to be highly likely at a depth of more than 1.8 metres. [Au(adp)] |
