Abstract: Border Archaeology undertook this archaeological desk-based assessment on behalf of Bristol Water to determine the nature of the archaeological resource within the vicinity of a proposed replacement water main pipeline, the route of which extends NE from Shipton Moyne Pumping Station (NGR ST 89848 88462) mostly along the line of the Fosse Way except for a short stretch at the NE end which extends through a field immediately W of the Fosse Way and then terminates at the crossing of the River Avon (Tetbury Branch) at NGR ST 90995 90265. The scheme constitutes (1) 1484m new laid main in the Fosse Way, a minimum 1.0m distance from the existing three mains in the road and (2) 534m laid in private fields at least I.0 m from the existing. The pipe trench will be between 0.6m and 1.0m wide, to a maximum depth of 1.5m approximately.archaeological significance prior to the construction activities, there is no longer anything remaining of archaeological merit.
