| Abstract: |
An archaeological evaluation, consisting of the excavation of four trial trenches, was undertaken prior to an application for residential development. Each trench revealed evidence of archaeological features. The earliest feature was a medieval soil, which was recorded across the site. This was cut by a series of features, interpreted as heavily truncated pits ranging in date from as early as the late 12th or 13th centuries to the 18th century. Truncating these was a deep soil layer probably created through accumulation during a period of agricultural land-use during the 17th century. This possibly equated to the area being used for liquorice plantations. This land use was recorded on maps from the 18th century until a terrace was built on the site in the 19th century. [Au(abr)] |
