Abstract: |
An archaeological desk-based assessment was required in advance of a decision on land purchase. The site lay within the grounds of a 13th century Dominican friary, but probably about 80m from the main buildings. After dissolution of the friary in 1538, a house was built within the grounds, at which time the site may have been woodland. When the house was demolished in the late 18th century, the grounds were used as gardens, and remained in use as such until the mid 19th century. A map of 1833 showed the layout of this area in detail. Development of the Blackfriars Estate after 1840 seemed to have had little impact on the site, apart from a lane across its western side. A few small outbuildings were recorded on 19th century maps near the northwest corner. A toilet block was built along the northern boundary, and the demolished remains survived. The lane to the west was incorporated into the site after 1977. The site was last used for car storage. The assessment found no records of archaeological features having existed on the site. [Au] |
