Abstract:		 An archaeological evaluation was undertaken by Cotswold Archaeology in October and November 2014 on land at Albert House, 103 Temple Street to 111 Victoria Street, Bristol. Three trenches were excavated. An undated silty-clay alluvial deposit, possibly a trampled former soil horizon overlying undisturbed riverine alluvium, was overlain in Trench 1 by successive, undated, stony-clay deposits which appear to have capped an area of former marshland. An east/west-aligned medieval ditch, cut through these consolidation deposits, was noted within Trench 1. Its primary fill contained 12th to 13th-century AD pottery and 12th to 15th-century pottery was recovered from its tertiary fill. Successive silt deposits, associated with 12th to 15th-century AD pottery, encountered within Trenches 2 and 3 appear from their form, location and extent to represent fills of a north/south-aligned section of medieval Lawditch within the south-western part of the site. Stone and mortar-filled trenches which cut these silts within Trenches 1 and 2 may represent late medieval/early post-medieval structural foundations. Subsequent medieval/post-medieval soils suggest relatively undeveloped areas, perhaps utilised as garden, within tenement plots to the rear of properties fronting Temple Street and St Thomas Street. Subsequent post-medieval/modern dump deposits, containing industrial waste including glass and iron slag, were also recorded. The evaluation also identified the construction and periodic adaptation of residential and/or commercial buildings during the post-medieval/modern periods, represented by stone wall foundations, flagstone flooring, stone and brick-built culverts and drains.
