Abstract The abstract describing the content of the publication or report |
Excavation was undertaken in an area to the rear of the building during redevelopment in late 1992. A limited sequence of archaeological deposits survived in a small area towards the very back of the plot, all other deposits having been removed by later rebuilding. The earliest feature consisted of a large shallow pit approximately 5.5m in diameter, which produced early-thirteenth century finds. This feature was replaced by a hearth, possibly associated with an oven, and a sequence of drainage gullies. These features produced a large assemblage of carbonised cereals and legumes, including the remains of vetch which is particularly significant as it was not previously thought to have been grown outside south-east England before 1350 and the hearth with which it was associated produced an archaeomagnetic date of AD~1260--1340. The features were sealed by a garden soil horizon which itself was cut by pits containing seventeenth-century finds. There are specialist reports on `The pottery' by Jenny Vaughan (69--73), `Coins' by Richard Brickstock (73--4), `The plant remains' by Jacqueline P Huntley (74--5), and `Archaeomagnetic dating' by Mark J Noel (75). | ||||||||||||
