Abstract: |
An evaluation was undertaken prior to the proposed redevelopment of the site. The excavation did not penetrate to a great enough depth to locate Roman, Anglian or Anglo-Scandinavian deposits. Medieval deposits, features and pottery were however, found frequently and in a good state of preservation. Structural activity was also noted, perhaps a reflection of its proximity to New Street, first mentioned in the 14th century. Post-medieval remains seemed to have been destroyed by modern activity, but a brick-built structure, of 19th century date, may have been the remains of the New Street Wesleyan Methodist Chapel constructed in 1805. It was recommended that any large scale excavation be resisted unless accompanied by appropriately funded archaeological excavation, analysis and publication. [Au(adp)] |
