| Abstract: |
An evaluation was carried out at the proposed site of an extension to an art gallery, which lay within the suggested area of the historic core of early medieval Wolverhampton. Prehistoric and Romano-British activity may have occurred in the surrounding area; a Roman urn with human remains had been found near the site in 1793. During the evaluation, the remains of a 19th century cellar with a brick-built drain and two possible coal chutes were recorded. A fragment of wall was observed, which may have been associated with a former building above the cellar. It was noted that deposits pre-dating the cellar may have survived within a small area of the site, and that a record of these could perhaps be obtained after the dismantling of a modern wall.
