Archaeology in Bath Excavations at the New Royal Baths (the Spa) and Bellott's Hospital 1998-1999
Prior to the building of the new Bath Spa, excavations were carried out to record the archaeological remains threatened by its construction. An important part of the dig was a programme of geoarchaeological research to study the microstructure of the soils excavated with a view to understanding the activities that led to their formation.
