Abstract:
Four trenches were evaluated in the basement of the building, only two of which, on the north side of the site revealed in situ archaeological remains. Natural gravel was recorded on the northern side of the site at c 21.00m OD sloping down to 20.52m OD on towards the east. Above the gravel a sandy silt, similar to topsoil, represented the top of rural open land predating Post-Medieval urban development and could be Roman or Medieval in date. At the base of the deposit at the junction with the gravel, very friable fragments of animal bone were present, though they are undated as no dateable finds were found in conjunction with it. It was noticeable that very small fragments of red tile/brick were occasionally found within the soil. A single course of a red brick wall, possibly of 17th/18th century date, aligned ESE/WNW had survived in one of the trenches and represents the earliest evidence for Post-Medieval development on the site. Further development was evidenced by an east -west wall dated to the mid 19th century and a brick pier base on late 19th/early 20th century. A watching brief, scheduled for March 2014 on the site did not take place as the engineering team carried out wholesale ground reduction.
