Abstract:
A programme of archaeological evaluation and excavation was undertaken by AOC Archaeology Group at St. Bede's School, Long Cross, Bristol. The earliest phase of activity identified on site occurred during the Mesolithic period, represented by a small assemblage of residual flints, suggestive of sporadic activity during this period. Evidence for later activity was present in the form of a sequence of Late Iron Age to Early Romano-British roundhouses, replaced by a large enclosure ditch. After a hiatus, activity on site resumed in the in the 3rd to 4th century primarily represented by a sequence of boundary ditches forming part of a larger field system. This, in turn, was also replaced by a large enclosure ditch. In addition to the field system was a contemporary mettled trackway, constructed from a large volume of metalworking waste. The only activity to be subsequently identified was a small number of walls and ditches spread extensively across the site, thought to be associated with the 17th to 19th century exploitation of this part of the landscape. Overall, a moderate to high density of archaeological features were identified during the course of the evaluation and excavation deriving from the Mesolithic, Late Iron Age/Early Romano-British, 3rd to 4th century AD and post-medieval periods. As a whole, the site is thought to be of local to regional significance, this is due to the nature of the evidence being able to inform on the Late Iron Age and Romano-British utilisation of the immediate landscape for both settlement and agriculture.
