RECOMMENDATION
An archaeological survey and evaluation of the proposed replacement of Bridge No. 236 on SR 1221
(Bostian Road) over an unnamed tributary of Cold Water Creek in Rowan County was conducted on
February 6, 20] 5, by Terri Russ and Laurie Griesmer of Environmental Services, Inc. (ESI). As a result
of the investigations, no archaeological sites were located within the project's APE. No further
archaeological investigations are needed for this project. I concur with this recommendation as the
proposed bridge replacement project will not impact significant archaeological resources. If the project
expands and impacts subsurface areas beyond the defined APE, further archaeological consultations will
be necessary.

Brief description of review activities, results of review, and conclusions:
ESI conducted an intensive archaeological survey for the replacement of Bridge No. 236 over an
unnamed tributary of Cold Water Creek on SR 1221 (Bostian Road) in China Grove, Rowan County,
North Carolina (Figures 1 and 2). As defined by the NCDOT, the survey area (Area of Potential Effects
[APE]) for archaeology measures approximately 300 feet (91.44 m) from either end of Bridge No. 236.
The corridor is approximately 150 feet (45.72 m) wide, extending 75 feet (22.86 m) on each side of SR
1221 from its present centerline.
A map review and site file search conducted by NCDOT on 1 December 2014 revealed that no previously
recarded archaeological sites have been identified within the APE. Four previously recorded
archaeological sites (31 RW253-31 RW256) are recorded within one mile of the APE. These sites were
recorded in 2014 by Coastal Carolina Research for the proposed relocation of Old Beatty Ford Road.
None of the evaluated portions of the sites (within the project's APE) were recommended eligible for the
National Register. A search of the North Carolina State Historic Preservation Office online database
(HPOWEB GIS Service) revealed no previously recorded historic architectural resources within the APE
that have the potential to yield intact archaeological deposits.
Topographic maps, aerial photography, United States Department of Agriculture (USDA) soil survey
maps, and historic maps were examined for information on natural or cultural factors that might have
affected site location or preservation. The 1893 USGS topographic map for Statesville shows a road
crossing near the current bridge. The c. 1910 Rural Delivery Routes map shows what appears to be the
current road alignment and crossing. The 1914 Soil Survey map for Rowan County also shows a road or
crossing in the vicinity of the current bridge. Later maps, including the 1938 and 1953 Rowan County
Highway maps, show no apparent changes to the road alignment or bridge.
The APE largely consists of wooded areas with some recent disturbance from residential construction.
Oriented roughly North-South, Bridge No. 236 and Bostian Road cross the unnamed stream, which drains
southeast into Cold Water Creek within the Yadkin-Pee Dee River Basin. Map units (soil series) are
named for the major soil or soils within the unit, but may have minor inclusions of other soils (NRCS
2013). The soil units mapped within the APE are listed in Table 1. The majority of the APE is
composed of Wynott-Enon complex soils (WtB and WtC), with Enon fine sandy loam (EnB) present in a
small portion of the northwestern quadrant of the APE. The Wynott-Enon complex consists of soils with
a well drained sandy loam A and E horizon over clay subsoil. These soils are typically encountered along
interfluves (WtB; 2-8% slopes) and hillslopes on ridges (WtC; 8—1 5% slopes). Enon fine sandy loam
(EnB; 8-15% slopes) is also a well drained soil series encountered on interfluves.
Table 1: Project Area Soils
Soil Name Code Slope Drainage Landform
Enon fine sandy loam EnB 2-8% Well Interfluves
Wynott-Enon complex WtB 2-8% Well Interfluves
Wynott-Enon complex WtC 8-15% Well Hillslopes on Ridges
The current archaeological investigation included pedestrian (visual) inspection and shovel testing within
the APE. Photographs of the project area are shown as Figures 3-13.
A systematic visual inspection of the APE was undertaken to search for surface artifacts, above-ground
structural remnants, or other signs of cultural activity. Surface visibility was generally poor due to ground
cover and existing vegetation. The northwestern quadrant and southwestern quadrants of the APE are

wooded. The remnants of an old roadbed running roughly parallel to Bostian Road are located adjaceni to
ar just inside the APE. Near the stream crossing, the old road bed is slightly elevated; and treated wooden
support timbers, concrete beam fragments, and gavel were noted in the southwestern quadrant of the
APE. Aerial phoiographs (Figures 11 and 12) show the location of the old road, which likely represents
a former alignment of Bostian Road. The bridge was likely demolished and the road re-aligned in ] 963
when the current bridge was constructed.
The northeastern quadrant of the APE was largely disturbed by grading and residential construction. Red
clay was visible through grass cover. The southeastern quadrant of the APE consists of an overgrown
area. Large pushpiles of soil were noted in this portion of the APE. Aerial photographs from 2008 and
2010 indicate that this area was used as a borrow pit and/or fill dump.
A total of 10 shovel tests were excavated within the APE (see Figure 2 for shovel test locations). Three
shovel tests (Shovel Tests [STs] 134-136) were excavated within the northwestern quadrant of the APE.
All three shovel tests encountered evidence of disturbance, likely related to the old road bed. Soils in this
portion of the APE consisted of 30 to 35 centimeters of olive brown loamy sand and gravel over olive
yellow sandy clay or strong brown sandy clay.
One shovel test was excavated in the northeastern quadrant of the APE (ST 137). This shovel test
encountered disturbed compact red clay and gravel. The remainder of this portion of the APE consisted
of a landscaped residential yard; no shovel tests were excavated in this area.
STs 138-140 were excavated within the southeastern quadrant of the APE. Red clay was encountered at
around 15 centimeters below surface in STs 138 and 139. ST 140 encoimtered a compact bed of gravel
(possibly a former driveway or parking area), later revealed to be located just outside of the APE
boundaries. Large pushpiles of soil confrmed the former borrow pit activities suggested by the aerial
photographs.
STs 141-143 were excavated in the southwestern quadrant of the APE. All three shovel tests encountered
disturbed soils and/or gravel, likely related to the old road bed. Concrete structural remnants and large
treated wood posts were noted in this portion of the project area (see Figure 13). The wooden posts were
nearly identical to those observed at other bridge sites visited during the investigations, and likely
represent the structural remnants of the former bridge, replaced in 1963 by the current bridge.
Shovel tests measured 30 centimeters in diameter and were excavated to sterile subsoil or the water table.
All soils were excavated by natural levels (soil strata) and screened through a 0.25-inch hardware mesh.
No artifacts were recovered from any of the shovel tests.
Based on the results of the background research and field investigations, no NRHP eligible archaeological
resources are located within the APE for Bridge No. 236 in Rowan County. It is recommended that this
project be allowed to proceed without concern for impacts to significant cultural resources. Should the
boundary of the proposed APE be expanded or moved, additional archaeological investigations may be
necessary, as determined in consultation with the NCDOT and/or SHPO per the Programmatic
Agreement.
