Abstract:		 A second phase of archaeological evaluation was undertaken by Cotswold Archaeology in February and March 2014 at the former Bristol General Hospital, Guinea Street, Bristol. Three trenches were excavated. Trenching revealed estuarine alluvial silts overlain by consolidation layers in Trenches 1 and 2a/2b, and probable hillside terracing in Trench 3a, associated with preparation of the site for post-medieval and later development. Sandstone wall footings and brick-built drainage structures were encountered within the area of a former 19th-century iron foundry and Rankin's Sugar House depicted on Ashmead's 1828 map of Bristol. Although the positions and alignments of the wall footings could not be closely correlated with building and/or plot divisions depicted on the 1828 map the plan the structures encountered may identify internal or external structures not depicted in detail on the historic mapping. Floor levels and deposits associated with the foundry and sugar works appear to have been removed prior to construction of hospital buildings. A single, truncated, post-medieval pit was noted in Trench 3a.
