Abstract: |
An evaluation was undertaken by Wessex Archaeology prior to redevelopment of the site by the construcion of two detached houses. The site was part of the land owned by Richard Lee in the mid-16th century, and lay within the boundary, comprised of a bank and ditch, that encircled his estate. The bank remains partly visble today, runing along the south side of London Road. Although it was anticipated that the ditch associated with the bank might be encountered during the evaluation, no evidence for it was identified. Any historical or archaeological horizons that may have once existed had been severely truncated by recent (20th-century) building activity associated with the constuction of the Grill Bar. It is possible that the ditch, if it survives, may lie immediately to the north of the site, under the pavement flanking London Road. |
