Abstract: |
<summary>A watching brief was undertaken on a proposed development site. The two aims of the study were firstly, to observe and record any remains of, or evidence for, the 18th century weir structure believed to be here, and secondly, to identify any pre-industrial horizons or deposits, ie of Roman origin. The results show that the weir apron had been removed. However, a crushed sandstone bedding appeared to have survived to the south of the site. {italon}AIP{italoff} |
