Abstract: |
An archaeological desk-based assessment and field evaluation were undertaken in advance of proposals to construct a rear extension to the existing commercial premises. Located in the centre of the medieval core of the city, the site lay between the High Street and Market Street. Multi-period archaeological remains were known from the City of Ely. The field evaluation revealed evidence of medieval and post-medieval deposits. The latter included the foundations of a structure and its later demolition and rubble layers, indicative of buildings depicted on 19th and 20th century cartographic sources. The presence of sparse medieval pottery suggested that the site was related to the nearby market place over many centuries. [Au(abr)] |
