Abstract: |
An archaeological watching brief was undertaken on the excavation of engineering test pits as part of a pre-planning application. No significant archaeological deposits were located within the test pits. A possible temporary garden or field wall was observed in TP5. All the other deposits observed were of 19th or 20th century date and related to the use of the area as a garden, and the construction of buildings either associated with those that fronted onto Blossom Street or to All Saints School. The watching brief located a thick layer of undated agricultural and horticultural soils and modern garden and construction activities. No evidence for the preservation of significant archaeological deposits in the form of archaeological features, burials, structures or stratigraphy was located in any of the test-pits. [Au(adp)] |
