Abstract:		 Two evaluation trenches were excavated in the north-east and south-west of the site in February 2015 following demolition of the 1914 Fire station building. Archaeological remains were limited to an undated ditch or quarry pit filled with waterlain clay in the north of the site, assumed to date to the post-medieval period, although potentially earlier. Tentative evidence for management of this feature survived in the form of a rudimentary fence or pit lining. Two parallel lines of stakes or roots, immediately to the east may be the remains of a fish trap or bush/shrub. This feature may potentially be associated with a Roman Road, which it is believed to share the alignment of the modern High street. In the south-west of the site a semi-circular feature may be a tree throw. Finds retrieved from the fill, including pot, tobacco pipe and part of a shaft-and-globe bottle, likely represent rubbish discarded between 1650 and 1700, prior to the development of the surrounding area in the mid-18th century. A building survey to English Heritage Level 2 standard (English Heritage 2006, 14) has already been produced, providing a descriptive and visual record of the existing fire station building, exterior and interior (MOLA 2015).
