Abstract: |
During the course of the watching brief deposits were encountered attesting to the use of the site in the modern, post-medieval, medieval and Roman periods. These consisted of layers of ash deposits overlaying successive modern and post-medieval yard surfaces, the lowest of which was dated to the 19th century by a sherd of glass. The deposition of ash suggested the disposal of domestic fires followed by the creation of yard surfaces. Underlying the earliest ash deposit was the natural subsoil into which two features were cut; the first a small post hole of medieval date and secondly a large pit which produced a large assemblage of finds dating to the 1st and 2nd centuries.
