Abstract: |
The archaeological evaluation successfully investigated those parts of the site which will be most affected by proposed development. It seems likely that a large feature parallel to the present main road represents a backfilled medieval canal, known as the Rhee Wall. The existence of the canal is known from documentary sources dating from the 13th century and, whilst it is believed to have gone out of use during the 15th century, it would probably have survived as a feature in the landscape for centuries afterwards. Dating evidence comprised a late medieval or early post-medieval horseshoe from the upper fill of the feature. |
