Abstract: |
An archaeological evaluation was carried out by Geoff Potter of Compass Archaeology. This took the form of three trenches c. 7.5m to 19.5m in length. The only surviving evidence related to later 19th and 20th century development, overlain by recent demolition material and compacted rubble. The northern part of the site contained several brick and concrete foundations and drains, and was heavily disturbed. To the south was a worked soil profile, clearly associated with the previous back gardens. These features and deposits overlay a natural surface ranging from sandy gravel to sandy silt-clay. The Geological Survey suggests the first of these is River Terrace material and the second an earlier Head deposit. |
