Abstract:
An archaeological evaluation was undertaken in response to a planning condition. The combination of archaeological and geotechnical test pits revealed that the surface of the natural brickearth was highest under the western end of Mumford Court and in general fell to the south and east. Although the archaeological remains that overlay the brickearth had been truncated and damaged by deeper foundations and services, significant depths of archaeological stratigraphy had survived in discrete islands over the natural brickearth and gravels. These features dated from shortly after the Roman conquest with evidence of Saxo-Norman and early to mid medieval activity. The test pits within Mumford Court confirmed that the archaeological deposits had been similarly truncated as those previously excavated to the south and as such would not merit preservation in-situ. However, a suitable form of archaeological mitigation would be required. [Au(abr)]
