Abstract:
The fieldwork comprised the excavation of three trenches. Trenches 1 and 2 measured 10m in length and 2m in width and Trench 3 measured 15m in length and 2m in width. Trench 3 was moved slightly from its original position, as set out in the WSI, due to the presence of asbestos. An archaeological evaluation was undertaken by Cotswold Archaeology in May 2018 at Globe House, Eugene Street Bristol. A total of three trenches was excavated. A number of limestone walls and surfaces, identified in the south-western part of the site, appear to relate to a building fronting Eugene Street, first depicted on Roqcue’s map of 1742. The exact function of this building remains unclear; however evidence from later historic mapping suggests that it is most likely to represent a terrace of small domestic properties. Two sub-rectangular graves, both of which contained articulated human bone and are located within the confines of a former burial ground depicted by 19th-century cartographic sources, were identified in the north-western and central-northern parts of the site. A further, similarly-shaped, feature was also identified in the north-western part of the site but was found to be devoid of human remains. The presence of these graves indicates that the burial ground was not fully cleared following its closure; however a possible charnel pit, also identified in the north-western part of the site suggest that at least some clearance of burials took place. A number of limestone walls and surfaces, identified in the central-northern part of the site, appear to relate to a group of buildings first depicted on Ashmead’s map of 1828. The function of these buildings remains unclear; however later historic mapping indicates that these buildings were amalgamated into, or subsumed within, a single larger industrial building occupying this part of the site. A limestone and red brick wall and a red brick, ash and slab surface, identified in the northwestern part of the site, appear to relate to a former industrial building, possibly associated with the Eastabrook & Sons Globe Steam Joinery Works, first depicted on the First Edition 1884 OS map.
