Abstract: |
The archaeological works undertaken on the site comprised a watching brief on the excavation of foundation trenches during the construction phase of the new buildings in the southern area of the site and a subsequent archaeological evaluation in the form of two trial trenches in the northern part of the site. The earliest archaeological evidence on site was in form of a linear depression in the underlying terrace gravel which was filled by a layer of silty clay and a layer of gravel. This may be evidence of a palaeochannel of uncertain date. The only secure dating evidence came from the topsoil. Modern china and clay tobacco pipe fragments are indicative of the sites use since the 19th century, when the vicarage was built. Finds from other deposits proved inconclusive and there is no indication of activity on site prior to the construction of the vicarage in the early 19th century. |
