Wessex Archaeology (WA) was commissioned by Heritage Planning Services Ltd. (hereafter 'the client') to carry out an archaeological watching brief on land at 11a Gloucester Road, Almondsbury, Bristol, centred on National Grid Reference (NGR) 6360709 184118 (hereafter referred to as the 'Site'). The watching brief took place between 6th and 10th July 2017. Archaeological monitoring of the groundworks revealed both historic and more modern landscaping had occurred, as well as revealing a spread of pale cream mortar, probably associated with the construction of the house to the west of the site, and a domestic rubbish filled pit of similar date (later 18th or 19th century). No features or finds predating the later post-medieval period were found.
