Abstract:

The evaluation revealed a layer that contained Roman pottery, and may have indicated that the area was cultivated either for agricultural or domestic purposes during the Roman period. Above this deposit was a thick layer of garden soil containing 18th century finds. The garden soil appeared to be sealing a large rectangular pit; the exact dimensions of which were unknown as it extended beyond the limit of excavation. The pit was notable for its concentration of 18th century clay tobacco pipe fragments. The pit fill also included two residual fragments of medieval pottery dating from the late 13th or early 14th centuries. [Au(abr)]
