Abstract: |
An archaeological watching brief was undertaken by Cotswold Archaeology in August 2016, at South Quays, Bath, Bath and North East Somerset. Five geotechnical site investigation trial pits were monitored. Probable alluvial deposits were identified in four of the excavated trial pits at depths of between 1.5m and 2.5m bpgl (17.2m-16.7m AOD). These deposits were overlain by deposits representing episodes of modern make-up/levelling. A limestone wall was identified in the western part of the site (Trial Pit 8) and appears to correspond to a row of buildings depicted on the First Edition 1886 OS map. A red brick wall was identified in the eastern part of the site (Trial Pit 10) and probably represents part of a 19th or 20th-century cellar. |
