Abstract: |
Archaeological observations confirmed that the site once formed part of the floodplain of the River Exe and that a sequence of alluvial clay had accumulated over the entire site. No dating evidence was recovered, but it had been demonstrated from other sites in the area that it was being deposited from the Roman through to the post-medieval periods. Other archaeological remains recorded were seven Second World War underground air raid shelters five of which still contained original concrete and brick benches. [Au(adp)] |
