Abstract: |
Targeted excavation of new porch construction within the boundary of a Scheduled Monument (no. 1003574) comprising part of the Anglo-Saxon town defences and part of the medieval motte and bailey castle; the sub-surface remains of the stone keep are known to lie in the locality of the present property. Despite the high potential for associated buried archaeological remains to be present, no significant archaeological features or deposits were present within the small excavated area. The uncovered overburden deposit is undated, it is likely to be a post-medieval soil and was observed to be cut by the foundations for the existing early 20th century house. |
