Abstract:		 Two trenches were investigated during Phase 1 in the northeastern corner of the site, whilst three trenches were undertaken during Phase 2 in the southern and western area. The evaluation revealed natural terrace gravels across the site, cut by widespread but small-scale quarrying of the natural gravel in the 17th and 18th centuries. This activity must have been taking place within St. Georges Fields in which the site was located. Evidence for buried soil horizons above the pitting was seen in Trenches 1 to 4. The latter also showed an alluvial deposit which may represent a localised, undated flooding episode. Thereafter was found evidence for the urban development of the site which can be seen on historic maps by the 1790s and continuing through the 19th century. The evidence took the form of deep wells which would have served these properties; however no evidence was found for the structures themselves, and it is suspected that they have been truncated and demolished by redevelopment of the site through the 20th century. The finds assemblages recovered, particularly the pottery, are of interest and have significance at a local level.
