Abstract: |
An archaeological evaluation was undertaken in an area of allotments to the south of St John's Hospital proposed for the construction of 22 new almshouses. Test-pitting indicated substantial deposits of medieval and later soil horizons adjacent to an existing culvert, with undated archaeological features including a north-west to south-east aligned possible ditch, and a south-west to north-east aligned wall recorded on higher ground to the south. The wall, constructed of Greensand, limestone and chalk, was sealed by a layer containing abundant quantities of medieval pottery, and may correspond to structural remains recorded during earlier work carried out in the area.
