Abstract:		 Roman structural remains, including fragmentary mosaic surfaces, opus-signinum and stone floors and a possible wall footing were identified within isolated areas throughout the site. Within the western part of the site the probable tail of Bath's eastern ramparts was identified, although truncated and disturbed by post-Roman activity. Roman features were overlain by a series of homogenous, turned garden or cultivation soils with dates broadly ranging from immediately post-Roman to post-medieval. These garden soils were cut by numerous pits, loosely interpreted as refuse pits, which, in places, truncated the Roman archaeology. The intensity of the pitting and the nature of the reworked soils made it difficult to establish a clear stratigraphic structure for these deposits. The construction of further uncellared structures and the installation of cellars occur within the Georgian period. A well-preserved Clay Pipe Factory constructed during the Georgian period was excavated in detail. Further developments are evident from the Early Victorian period with cellared properties being constructed each with a cast iron range and 'copper' probably installed after the building was constructed. In the later Victorian period, after the cellars fell into disuse, stone capped drainage was installed within some cellars . By the end of the 20th century all the cellars had been infilled and structures levelled.
