The role of the fortification in Gloucester during the English Civil War 1642-51: strategic or suppression?
R Israel
During the English Civil War (1642-51) fortifications in major cities, such as London, were positioned not only to strategically defend the city, but to monitor and suppress the movements of the population inside. This dissertation examines whether this situation occurred in Gloucester, attempting to determine its main role - strategic or suppression? Fortifications, whatever their design, are primarily examined through their strategic capabilities. This dissertation continues this traditional approach, however expands using the multi-disciplinary approach of Landscape Archaeology, in an attempt to understand the full role of a civil war fortification. This dissertation has demonstrated that the primary role of the fortification in Gloucester appears to have been strategic, and that any attempt at suppression is minimalistic. However, the fortification embodies much more than a strategic function, encompassing the social, political and economic world of the inhabitants; it has roles, not one role. This research means that fortifications should not be examined in isolation, but as an integral part of the society that constructed and utilised it.

The Royal Fort: an archaeological study of its siting within the English Civil War landscape of Bristol (1642-45)
R Israel
This paper is focused on the Royal Fort, one the largest fortifications constructed during this period in the city of Bristol (important largely because of its port) after the Royalists captured the city from the Parliamentarians in 1643. Comparisons to the contemporary fortifications at Oxford and Newark, and other sites in Bristol are examined to determine what elements were used in its original construction. The exact location of the fort is not known; therefore using such archaeological techniques such as geophysics, cartographic and topographical analysis this work has placed the fort in the landscape of the 1640s. With this new location, Geographical Information System (GIS) and view-shed analysis has highlighted the significant position the fortification held during the 1640s civil war landscape of Bristol. This work does illustrate how the English Civil War can be studied from an archaeological viewpoint, and why further examination of this period is necessary.
