Abstract: |
An archaeological watching brief on four window samples and three geotechnical test pits, located in the car park to the rear of the development. Natural deposits appeared to be at c 2m below ground level across the site. The earliest archaeological evidence was found in one of the window samples, and is possibly a large quarry pit. Although no dating evidence was associated with it, it predates the post medieval levelling layers that sealed it. A brick drain found in one of the test pits may be related to a 17th-18th century drainage/culvert/flue system excavated by PCA during an archaeological excavation in 2005 at 15 Dock Street just to the west. |
