Abstract:
Border Archaeology Ltd (BAL) was instructed by Bristol Water to carry out Archaeological Observation of engineering groundworks during mains augmentation to the east of the former Cadbury's Factory Somerdale Keynsham South Gloucestershire/Bath and North East Somerset (NGR: ST 66102 69108-ST 66434 69267). The pipeline extended over a distance of approximately 375m from the junction of an unclassified lane with the A4175 (Keynsham Road) at its western end, extending along the course of the lane adjacent to the River Avon and through grassed fields to a connection point with a pipe bridge over the River Avon at its eastern terminus. The engineering methodology of directional drilling necessitated the excavation of nine launch/reception pits under archaeological supervision. The groundworks only revealed an undated possible ditch [206]. This feature had been backfilled with material of a fairly similar composition to the overlying modern or late post-medieval layers and was thus considered likely to be of the same period. The site was previously subject to extensive ground contamination and disturbance. The limited extent of the pipeline route that was subject to excavation, namely, the launch/reception pits, suggests the potential for further buried features and deposits to occur elsewhere in this area.
