Abstract:		 A geophysical survey was carried out by Archaeological Surveys Ltd at Redcliffe Wharf in Bristol. The site has been subject to previous evaluation by Cotswold Archaeology and is known to contain evidence for a glass works dating to the 18th century as well as pottery manufacturing and warehousing and other structures from the 19th century. Magnetometry was undertaken in order to locate potential strongly magnetic responses that could relate to glass cone or pottery kiln furnaces. An area of magnetic enhancement was located, but its origin is uncertain. Several strong, discrete, dipolar responses were evident in the vicinity of the projected glass cone area, but these indicate a response to ferrous material and could relate to modern objects. A ground penetrating radar trial survey was also undertaken over the area of the previously evaluated glass cone as well as a wider area in order to determine if there was a response to features associated with an extension to the wharf and other 18th and 19th century structures. The results have revealed a well defined zone along the western edge that relate to infill and former surfaces that are bounded by a possible former wharf wall. The area of the glass cone contains several strong reflectors that correspond to a previously evaluated brick surface. The anomalies may indicate further bricks or an area of intense burning inside the glass cone, which could relate to the internal furnace. The glass cone wall was not evident within the results.
