Abstract:		 The area of just under 600 sq m was stripped under constant archaeological supervision using a machine with a toothless bucket to the relevant horizon (geological natural) to reveal any archaeological features. The area was extended to the south-east due to the presence of other features (drains and pits) in this part of the site. The excavation revealed the remains of a 19th-century downdraft brick kiln, a mortar mixing pit, quarry pits (earlier but not necessarily much earlier) and at least two drainage systems, one probably contemporary with the kiln. Precise dating is mostly speculative but the kiln is probably from the 2nd half of the 19th century.
