Abstract:
An archaeological evaluation was undertaken by Cotswold Archaeology in December 2008 at Merchants Almshouses, King Street, Bristol. Two trenches were excavated. The evaluation established the presence of wall foundations associated with the former west wing of the Merchants Almshouses, constructed in the late 17th Century. These foundations were themselves established upon what appeared to be the foundations of an earlier building. The former Marsh Wall was not exposed, although a combination of auger survey and observations of subsidence affecting neighbouring standing buildings suggests the route predicted in an earlier desk-based assessment is reasonably accurate. Significant amounts of redeposited soil and rubble, dating from the mid 17th to mid 18th centuries, found in both trenches probably reflects activity associated with the construction of the Almshouses in the late 17th Century.
