Description
Book SynopsisThe excavations also produced evidence for Early Bronze Age houses and numerous examples of burnt mounds. Other discoveries comprised much new evidence for Iron Age settlement (including some in areas of upland), Roman roads, crop-processing ovens, and ironworking.
Trade ReviewThe volume is published to Cotswold Archaeology’s usual high standards. There are also individual reports on their website of specific sites and stages of the route. Thechapters are a synthesis arranged in chronological order over the whole of the pipeline’s course and from the Upper Palaeolithic to 1900. This book will be useful not only to those interested in the archaeology of the landscape of South Wales, but also, with the Network Archaeology report on the Archaeology Data Service Library site, to a much wider audience especially in studying various depths of hinterland of the Lower Severn and Wye Valleys in the past. * Bristol and Gloucestershire Archaeological Society *
…the volume highlights a well-organised project and offers valuable overviews of the archaeology of south Wales today. * Current Archaeology *
