Abstract: |
The excavation of the service trenches indicated that the Roman cultivation soil identified in the evaluation extended across the site and supported the suggestion that the area was agricultural land during this period, though close to areas of settlement and industrial activity. No further evidence of Anglo-Saxon activity was recovered. No evidence was found of the medieval city wall, which in consequence was now considered to lie further to the north. Medieval and earlier post-medieval deposits were limited to reworked soil and a single pit. The discovery of a brick lined cellar added to the evidence of intensive 18th and 19th century development.
