Abstract: |
A programme of archaeological work was undertaken by Network Archaeology Ltd in the backyard of Ye Olde Crowne Inn (built 1937), which stands on Clasketgate in Lincoln. This involved monitoring of groundworks associated with the construction of an extension to the rear of the property. The archaeological work formed part of the discharge of conditions that accompanied planning permission for the development. During the monitoring of the 7.6m x 4.7m excavation area, a number of deposits were recorded. Most were of relatively recent date and comprise a sequence of two tarmac yard surfaces with preparation layers. A short, L-shaped length of brick wall represented the stratigraphically earliest feature. This may have formed part of a building that pre-dated Ye Olde Crowne. The orientation of this wall was the same as current property boundaries. Artefactual evidence was limited to five sherds of 19th-20th century pottery, and two fragments of clay tobacco pipe of the same date. Further remains of greater age almost certainly exist on the site, but none were encountered due to the relatively shallow depth of the development area, which was excavated to just 0.65m below the current ground surface. |
