| Abstract: |
The scheme of evaluation consisted of thirteen evaluation trenches. No remains earlier than the 17th century were encountered during evaluation, although pottery dating from the 11th to12th century onwards were present residually in excavated deposits. The earliest features preset at the site were two consecutive brick clamps, dated by pottery to the mid-17th century, producing slop-moulded brick and a sinuous stone-filled drain dated by brick to 17th to 18th century. Prior to this, the site appeared to have undergone substantial truncation, evidenced by a consistent trampled overburden accompanying subsoil. [Au(abr)] |
