Abstract: |
A watching brief was carried out during groundworks at the site of a new nursing home. Palaeolithic and Neolithic findspots had been recorded within 400m of the site, whilst Bronze Age, Iron Age and Roman ditches had also been identified nearby. The site was known to have been farmed from the medieval period. During the watching brief, extensive cellaring associated with the hospital which had formerly occupied the site was observed, but no features or deposits which pre-dated the 20th century were found. No artefacts were recovered. [AIP] |
