Abstract: |
An archaeological evaluation was carried out in Stage 1 of a development. Trench 3, to the south of Union Street contained a pit, a possible property boundary and a beam-slot. The features were dated by pottery from the late 15th-17th century. Trench 9, to the northeast of Holyhead Road, contained a partly excavated pottery kiln, together with two unexcavated possible kilns, associated with a deposit sealing the subsoil, interpreted as hearth rake-out material. The associated pottery was of 16th-17th century in date. The other trenches mainly identified brick buildings of 19th century date, with associated deposits. [Au(abr)] |
