Abstract: |
The evaluation identified features of early Saxon date, as well as medieval and post-medieval features close to the street frontage. The presence of Samian ware within Saxon features did not automatically suggest the presence of a Roman settlement in the vicinity, although this could not be completely ruled out. Features in trench 1 suggested the presence of a post-built structure or fence line, probably during the early medieval period. The post holes were cut by two ditches, the latest of which contained pottery of 13th-14th century date. A compact gravel surface associated with the remnants of a section of walling provided evidence for another, later structure on the street frontage. The area of this trench had suffered considerable post-medieval and modern disturbance. [Au(adp)] |
