Abstract:		 Archaeological recording was carried out during construction of a rear detached single-storey dwelling. Historic mapping (OS 1886) shows the site much as it is today as part of a ribbon of terraced properties fronting Port Street with long thin garden plots to the rear. These properties are associated with the earlier medieval burgage plots and the rear gardens are likely to contain pits related to their former occupation. Earlier archaeological work in 2008 on land to the rear of 50-64, Port Street and Church Street revealed pitting associated with the occupancy of Medieval tenements along Port Street producing pottery indicating occupation from the 11th to 15th centuries. The study site is described as an early 19th century three-storey terraced range. Whether this has replaced an earlier medieval or post medieval building is unclear, but evidence of this may survive within the building itself. The stone well recorded outside the area of excavation may be related to construction of the existing building although the use of masonry in the construction suggests that it may be an earlier feature, perhaps associated with an earlier phase of construction. Also shown on the historic mapping to the rear of the building is a small detached square structure. The purpose of this feature is unclear, but it may have been an outside privy. Truncation of the underlying deposits appears to have been confined to the central length of the excavation area and is characterized by a number of later features. A deposit situated in the south-west corner of the excavation which also appears to have been associated with later truncation produced early 18th century pottery. A subsoil layer representing a relict soil horizon immediately overlay the natural substrate. Although undated this is probably related to the earliest occupation of the site.
