Abstract: |
An archaeological evaluation and building survey was undertaken on the site of a proposed new domestic development. Two 3m by 3m trenches were excavated to a maximum depth of c.1.75m and recorded. The results of a borehole survey carried out were also incorporated into this report. The surviving standing buildings were examined and areas of interest recorded by drawing and photography. Complex archaeological stratigraphy of the medieval period was located, recorded and excavated in Trench 1. This included features, deposits, and structures. Finds associated with these features hinted at medieval metalworking taking place in the immediate area. Trench 2 was occupied mainly by structural remains from probably no earlier than the 19th century although build-up deposits or dumps belonging to the medieval period were located below these structures. The major elements of the building complex were located below these structures. The major elements of the building complex were recorded and identified as 18th and 19th century in date with 20th century repairs and alterations. The wall constructed predominantly of limestone on St Martin's Lane, which formed part of the front wall of one of the buildings, was interpreted as originally having been part of a boundary wall similar to that on the north side of Fetter Lane.
