Abstract:
A review of the historical and archaeological sources suggests the site has low potential to contain any archaeological remains. The known burial ground is located on the south side of the chapel and will not be impacted upon during the proposed re-development of the site. The graveyard will therefore be left preserved in situ. The site was first occupied with a large private house called 'West Mead' built by Edward Protheroe in 1820. In 1896 that the Sisters of Mercy bought the convent and established a girls school the following year. The school is currently operated as an E-ACT Academy by Bristol City Council. The main school building is a Grade II listed building, and it is considered that all other structures on the site, excluding a 2 storey detached classroom (1972) and the current sports hall (1986), would be considered as curtilage to the main building. This includes the boundary walls which are contemporary with the main school. The site also lies within the Downs Conservation Area. The proposed development consists mainly of conversions and refurbishments of existing buildings, and in these places no below-ground archaeological investigations will be required.
