Abstract: |
Archaeological monitoring was undertaken on groundworks associated with the construction on two new dwellings on the site of a former corn mill. Archaeological interest was focused on the extant mill pond and associated wheel pit, and any potentially associated buildings surviving on the site as below-ground remains. A cluster of buildings labelled Corn Mill and the mill pond are shown on the 1890 OS map, although the mill buildings had been demolished or greatly modified in the first half of the 20th century, with industrial units on the site since. The work revealed the limited presence of both sandstone of brick structures, and industrial deposits of coal, clinker and slag. Several discarded grinding wheels were also revealed. Due to the limited confines of the test pits and footings, none of the remains were fully exposed, making interpretation difficult. |
