Abstract: |
An area of c.0.6 hectares was subject to trenched evaluation as a condition of planning consent to develop the site. Seven trenches were excavated, within which a single late medieval ditch was identified in the south east corner of the site. Elsewhere, the site showed evidence of probable quarrying activity, with large pits present in five of the seven excavated trenches. These were not rich in finds but the pottery assemblage suggests the main activity on the site occurred in the medieval period, with residual earlier evidence (prehistoric and Roman) represented. A single abraded sherd of Middle Saxon pottery was found in pit 0003 in association with two masses of ironwork which remain undated and unidentified prior to X-radiography. |
