This collection comprises images and a metal detecting survey report from an archaeological watching brief undertaken by Cotswold Archaeology July to October 2018. This watching brief took place during groundworks associated with the removal of part of Powick Weir built in 2000, and the establishment of the site compound and material handling area.
Portions of an earlier, post-medieval weir were uncovered during the works, comprising of timber posts and a sandstone structure. Two further clusters of timber posts were identified both up and downstream of the weir. The remains of the timber posts were left in situ. No further archaeological features were observed either at the weir or during the groundworks in the compound area.
