Abstract: |
Archaeological monitoring of the ground works for the development concentrated on two main trenches. The monitoring recorded evidence of further early features which had become hidden by the modern concrete surface. Amongst these were: Four earlier floors within the warehouse. A substantial 19th century concrete platform support for a boiler or possible machinery. A flue leading to a chimney just to the north of the site. The original cobbled surface of the yard to the north. Three concrete dished floors and granite post bases of a reinforced first floor in the main warehouse building. [Au(abr)] |
