Abstract: |
The Archaeology Unit of Southampton City Council carried out an archaeological watching brief at 6 Kent Street, Portsea, Portsmouth, on the groundworks for the construction of a block of 7 flats, on behalf of their clients Latimer and Ayles Partnership Limited. The site lies in Area 2 of the Local Areas of Archaeological Importance as defined by Portsmouth City Council. Area 2 covers the area of the naval dockyard, founded by 1495, and its defences. It includes the area of the settlement, housing dockworkers and their families, which became known as Portsea, and also the defensive circuit that protected the dockyard and settlement by the late 18th century. The area is defined principally as one of importance for post-medieval archaeology. No features or deposits of archaeological significance were observed. |
