Abstract: |
The evaluation was carried out in advance of a mixed development. Borehole data revealed that the site lay above a sIgnificant depth of archaeological deposits. Finds from the Roman, Anglo-Scandinavian and medieval periods were present. Some of the buildings were found to have shallow foundations that had not impacted upon the medieval archaeology, however in other places deposits were severely truncated. A trench was excavated to assess the position of the Roman and medieval cemeteries, however they were not found. Evidence for Roman landscaping, an Anglo-Scandinavian pit and a sequence of medieval deposits and cuts were recorded and related to refuse disposal. Post-medieval boundary ditches were identified which possibly separated the properties from the dump were located, as well as evidence for 19th century buildings. [Au(abr)] |
