Abstract: |
A watching brief was carried out during ground work reduction at the rear of the existing buildings to enable its reconstruction using a new footing and new pad foundations to a maximum depth of 1500m.Archaeological remains comprised a variety of post-medieval make-up/levelling deposits dumped to raise the ground level presumably in preparation of a new phase of building across the site. Cutting through the uppermost deposit was a disturbed 18th-19th century orange brick-lined feature with a possible drainage function, which was subsequently severely truncated by the construction of the current buildings at 40-42 Church Street dated from 1830s. No natural deposits were reached during the excavation. |
