Abstract: |
An archaeological watching brief was undertaken during the excavation of a trench along the route of the proposed land drain. The trench was positioned alongside the existing wall of the castle, outside of the limit of the scheduled area. No natural deposits were observed and no archaeological deposits or features of pre-modern date were present. The report concluded that it was likely that the boundary wall itself was relatively recent in date, and may have been contemporary with houses at 9-13 Old Bridge. Since its construction, the western (castle) side had been used as a dump for building waste and general rubbish. [Au(adp)] |
