Abstract:
14 trial trenches were excavated across the south-eastern and northern areas of the proposed development site. Part of the site had already undergone a previous scheme of evaluation carried out in 1995. The site lay within the precinct of the medieval priory of St Andrews and the putative site of the Anglian wic, the remains of which underwent extensive excavation in 1985 and 1986. The evaluation made contact with archaeological deposits which ranged in date from the Roman through to the post-medieval periods. The western half of the development area was characterised by up to 1.5m of made ground and modern overburden. The eastern half of the site, fronting onto Fishergate itself, had undergone a severe degree of modern truncation and post-medieval intrusion. A large pit of Anglian date was exposed and partially excavated. These features clearly indicated that significant archaeological remains from the early medieval and medieval periods survived in at least one area of the site. [Au(abr)]
