| Abstract: |
An archaeological evaluation was undertaken prior proposals to develop. The evaluation work in the tan yard revealed a series of buildings, pits, surfaces and other deposits relating to the use of the site as a tannery during the 19th century. The work shed new light on the layout of the eastern part of the tan-yard, at least during its later phases and had defined areas where particular processes were carried out. Geophysical survey had demonstrated that, in all probability, the tannery complex once extended into the field south of the present tan-yard. This part of the complex must, however, have fallen into disuse by 1888 at the latest, since the OS map of that date depicted what may have been a small orchard occupying the field. [Au(adp)] |
