Abstract: |
Four evaluation trenches revealed a rich and well preserved archaeological sequence. At the top of the sequence lay the brick foundations of 17th-18th century houses, damaged by bombing and subsequently levelled. Disruption of the stratigraphy as a result of the bombing was identified close to the site of a cellared house. The cellar of a 17th-18th century public house was also located. Deeper sondages revealed the remains of 13th-14th century medieval buildings sealed beneath a layer of garden soil of 16th and 17th century date. Occupation levels rich in environmental remains were associated with the medieval occupation, one such deposit dating to the 11th century and overlying a metalled surface.[Au] |
