Abstract: |
An archaeological evaluation, comprising the excavation of 13 trial trenches, was undertaken in advance of the redevelopment of the site. The evaluation revealed the remains of brick and concrete floors that formed part of a malthouse that occupied the north-eastern corner of the site until at least the early 1940s. No features or deposits of Roman or medieval date were uncovered. If remains from this period had once been present then they had been destroyed by later activity, principally the construction of buildings and the railway viaduct in the 18th and 19th centuries.
