Abstract: |
A review of existing archaeological and geotechincal information suggested that much of the site had been heavily landscaped and involved terracing down to the natural geology, which removed any potential archaeological deposits. Borehole data suggested that silty deposits underlying the southern end of the site at a depth of over 6.5m may have been of alluvial origin, and if so, may have contained palaeoenvironmental deposits or masked archaeological remains. Minor archaeological deposits related to the19th century railway may also have existed on the site, together with several extant 19th century industrial buildings of local interest. [Au(abr)] |
