Abstract: |
In January 2020, Cotswold Archaeology carried out an archaeological evaluation at Post Hill, Tiverton Devon. This evaluation was undertaken for Burrington Estates Ltd. It was carried out in response to a draft planning condition associated with a planning application for the demolition of existing buildings and subsequent residential development of the site. None of the trenches contained archaeological features or deposits. No evidence for truncation was observed. This indicates that the prehistoric and Roman activity recorded in the vicinity of the site did not extend as far as the site itself. The modern walls and surface revealed are similar in construction to the extant hospital buildings at the site. They are in the location of (and are on the same alignment as) a former hospital building depicted on Ordnance Survey mapping from 1905 to 1993. |
