Abstract: |
Trial trenching revealed a series of pits, including one with a possible timber and clay lining, which produced pottery dating to the Middle Saxon through to the early medieval period. The site is located within an area of known Saxon activity and consequently the presence of such features were not unexpected. What is slightly unusual is the lack of later medieval material. This would suggest an absence of medieval activity in this area which could imply a contraction of the occupied area of the town. What the evaluation has confirmed, however, is that early features survive and have not been destroyed by post-medieval, primarily 19th century, activity. |
