Abstract:
Archaeological monitoring and recording was undertaken during groundworks associated the construction of an extension to the existing property at 24 Windhill. The site is located in the historic core of the town, which is of medieval origin. The property is probably of mid-Victorian construction and surrounded by a number of listed buildings of 16/17th to 19th century date. The monitoring of construction groundworks recorded a 0.75m thick deposit sequence overlying the natural deposit, comprising topsoil and subsoils. Archaeological features were identified to be present, being recorded to both cut and seemingly underlie subsoil. Potential robbed wall remains [1004] and its wall trench infill deposits cut the subsoil and intruded into the natural deposit below. Intercut pits [1010] and [1012] were identified below the subsoil. All were determined to be of 19th or 20th century date, due to the presence of diagnostic pottery and building materials in their fills, and therefore almost certainly therefore contemporary with the construction and/or subsequent use of the extant house. A few pieces of 15th-16th century pottery and roof tile were residual in these later features.
