Abstract: |
A Historic Building Recording, a Historic Building Watching Brief and an Archaeological Watching Brief of 14 George Street, St Albans was carried out as part of the planning permission for the conversion of the building to residential use. Although described as having been constructed in the later 18th century, the timber framing behind the brick built frontage is clearly late medieval. The Watching Brief on the ground reduction in the rear garden revealed considerable made ground containing unstratified animal bone, oyster shell, clay pipe stems, ceramic building material, glass and pottery dating from the late medieval period to the 19th century. No archaeological features were discovered and there was no evidence for the abbey wall that was thought to have traversed the site. |
