Abstract:		 The excavation revealed a sequence of occupation dating from the Prehistoric period through to the Later Medieval period. The Prehistoric and Roman remains were severely truncated across most of the development area but had been preserved in the centre of the site beneath a bank constructed during the Late Saxon period. The surviving remains included the remnant of a Late Roman building whose finds assemblage suggested that it may have served as a mill or ancillary structure such as a barn. There was some evidence that this structure had been demolished by fire. The Late Saxon sequence comprised the earliest in a series of large ditches thought to represent an attempt to drain the marginal land to the north of the site. There was evidence that the earliest of these features was banked and may have represented the line of the Danish burgh, whose exact location has never been established. Also of note was evidence for a Late Saxon kiln in the locality in the form of a large assemblage of pottery recovered from an ash laden pit in the northern part of the development area. During the Medieval period the site appears to have served an agricultural function, up until the Late |Medieval/Post Medieval period when the urban settlement encroached upon the development site.
