Born on the 4th of July: the Gauntlet, Glastonbury

Publisher Marketing: THIS BOOK CONTAINS THE RESULTS OF TWO INDEPENDENT ARCHAEOLOGICAL STUDIES CONDUCTED IN THE HEART OF GLASTONBURY TOWN CENTRE AT 11 HIGH STREET, NOW THE FOOTPRINT OF THE BUSY DOUBLE AWARD-WINNING GAUNTLET SHOPPING THOROUGHFARE. The studies were commissioned by the Developer and Landlord/owner Doug Hill between 2005-2007. They were request ed as a pre-condition for planning by Somerset CountyCouncil as it was considered imperative to document the history of the site, the development of which offered a unique opportunity prior to the commencement of the building works. This is a Grade 2 listed building positioned in the centre of a conservation area in the heart of Glastonbury (adjacent to the Tri - bunal, a Grade 1 Listed building) and as such is considered to be of great importance. The land at 11 High Street was stripped, mapped and the artefacts logged. The broad spectrum of finds were subsequently donated to the Somerset Museum, Taunton. THE ARCHAEOLOGICAL ANALYSIS CONTAINED IN THIS BOOK IS COMPREHENSIVE. BOTH REPORTS PRESENT DE TAILED, ACCURATELY ASSEMBLED, DOCUMENTED RECORDS, WHICH I AM SURE YOU WILL FIND FASCINATING.
