| Abstract: |
An archaeological watching brief was undertaken during the excavation of trench runs for new heating and service ducts. The excavations established the presence of parts of two walls forming a probable building aligned east-west immediately south of the college chapel. The exact date of construction of the building was not established, though the walls were set within deposits containing a range of post-medieval material. Part of a third wall on a NNE-SSW alignment corresponded with that of a building depicted on Taylor's 1750 map of Oxford. Pottery and glass from associated deposits was of post-medieval date. No evidence of medieval building or occupation was recovered from the service trenches. Deposits overlying the demolished structures indicated that the site was levelled in the 19th century in preparation for the gardens that existed on the site today. [Au(abr)] |
