Abstract:
Wessex Archaeology was commissioned by Bristol Water plc to undertake an archaeological watching brief during groundworks associated with the proposed extension to the existing Brent Knoll reservoir (hereafter, 'the Site'), centred on NGR ST 33250 51700. The watching brief was undertaken within three areas and comprised the topsoil removal within Areas 1 and 2 and the topsoil strip, followed by excavation of the new reservoir within Area 3. Although the Site is situated in the vicinity of Brent Knoll hillfort, no archaeological features, finds or deposits were observed during the fieldwork. Across the majority of Areas 1 and 2, the topsoil strip was insufficient to expose the underlying geology. Within Area 3, modern made ground layers were recorded to overlie natural geology. A possible former horizontal truncation of the natural deposit within the area, which might have removed archaeological deposits, was indicated during the investigation. The fieldwork was undertaken between 27th October 2011 and 4th November 2011.
