| Abstract: |
An evaluation, consisting of the excavation of nine trial trenches, was carried out prior to housing development. A single archaeological feature was identified in trench 8, which consisted of an undated linear feature orientated E-W. It was clear that a considerable amount of landscaping had taken place on the site, as areas of terracing were clearly visible. In the area at the top of the hill (trenches 5-9), archaeological features may have survived below the modern deposits, probably truncated by disturbance. Down the hill-slope in the garden area (Trenches 1-4), any archaeological deposits which survived would be buried beneath re-deposited material. Only one trench possibly contained undisturbed remains. Given the extensive disturbance that took place in the mid-19th century when the hospital was built, combined with the re-deposition of large amounts of sand a watching brief was recommended during development.
