Abstract: |
An excavation prior to redevelopment on the site yielded important information on this part of the town which had not previously been subject to controlled excavation. Evidence was recovered for activity on the site continuously from the Middle Saxon period to the present day. Seven early medieval graves were uncovered showing the site being on the periphery of a known cemetery. Land use seems to have remained relatively unchanged with the recovered remains forming a back yard area to buildings fronting onto the main street. In addition, a few Roman finds were also made on the site.[Au(abr)] |
