Abstract:		 An archaeological watching brief was carried out on the site of the former Co-Operative store. This entailed the observation of 17 screw auger piles, the excavation of eight trenches and the sinking of a single borehole for dating and environmental purposes. Materials cast up by the screw auger indicated the presence of deeply stratified archaeological deposits, probably relating mostly to the Roman period and apparently including timber structures. Remains observed in the trenches consisted of medieval-post-medieval walls and deposits together with 19th century cellar walls, cellar infill and 20th century construction levels. The borehole yielded significant environmental data from waterlogged organic deposits and indicated the seepage of gasses from historic organic deposits. [Au(abr)]
