Abstract: |
An archaeological watching brief was carried out during groundworks for several new dwellings. Near to the back of the former hotel, evidence was revealed for post-medieval layers of the 17th or 18th century, possibly indicating demolition or dumping of debris to raise the surface levels. Elsewhere, to the west of the building, evidence was recovered for intensive quarrying, probably to extract the natural sand and gravels which existed on the site. Although limited dating evidence suggested a 13th or 14th century date for some of the quarries, most remained undated. The fact that there was little evidence of the quarry pits inter-cutting, however, suggested a degree of contemporaneity between the features. [Au(abr)] |
