| Abstract: |
The excavation site at No 169 Southgate Street occupies a low-lying site immediately NE of where the old Bristol Road (now Southgate St) forded the Sudbrook stream. Archaeological evidence has previously been found indicative of Roman and medieval occupation to the west and southwest of the site. Later cartographic and documentary evidence indicates that a detached house was built in the northwest corner of the site c.1820-30 and that significant industrial development followed, with the building workshops or carriage assembly sheds connected with the Gloucester Railway Carriage and Wagon Company. The evaluation revealed 19th and 20th century building activity followed by subsequent demolition and clearance phases. No archaeological features or artefacts predating the 19th century were observed or recovered. |
