This was the first excavation by the Brislington Community Archaeology Project. The test pit lacked any useful stratigraphy but produced a variety of finds ranging from the Early Bronze Age (a flint tool hollow scraper), through the phase when the site was part of the Broomwell House estate (1760s to 1923), to modern builder's rubble.
