Abstract: |
In January 2011 Bristol and Region Archaeological Services carried out an archaeological evaluation and watching brief during a housing renewal project at the Southlands Estate, Weston, near Bath. Four evaluation trenches were excavated and initial groundworks were monitored. Post medieval and modern field drains were present in each of the four trenches. One trench contained a more substantial drain associated with an orchard depicted on the 1888 published edition Ordnance Survey plan. Terracing of the lower slopes of Penn Hill for construction of the housing estate in the late 1940s and subsequent landscaping had caused significant below-ground disturbance across the site. |
