Abstract:
A desk-based assessment was carried out on the site, which was within the historic core of Bristol. The study indicated possible land reclamation on the site from the 16th century onwards. More recent cartographic evidence implied industrial activity and the assessment confirmed the presence of 19th century structures. Archaeological deposits were indicative of landfill and general ground make-up during the 16th to 19th centuries. The evaluation trenches were located in the area deemed to have the highest archaeological potential, to the south with the highest ground level. The northern part of the site was monitored by geotechnical investigation and recorded dump deposits with artefacts and building material that matched that of the lighting station. It was concluded that the majority of the site had little or no significant surviving archaeology, except the area to the south-east, which required a suitable archaeological response. [Au(adp)]
