Abstract: |
A series of six archaeological test pits were dug to the rear of St. Andrew's Street in advance of planning application for the Grand Arcade redevelopment. Access and hole size were limited, but three of the four main test pits revealed archaeological features (two of which were medieval including a probable wall footing) and the fourth test pit had a probable 'B' horizon at the base. All the test pits had a thick layer of well worked garden soil serving to protect deeper deposits. [Au] |
