Abstract: |
The foundations of 19th century brick buildings, and a number of walls which could not be closely dated, were located during trial trenching at a site within Saffron Walden. The walls may have been medieval, as 13th-14th century pottery was recovered from the backfill of a foundation cut for one, and from a feature which may have been associated. Other features included a large 18th-19th century boundary ditch, a possible boundary ditch containing 18th century pottery, and 19th century garden walls. Stratified deposits in the form of possible floors and later demolition and levelling layers were noted. Finds included Roman pottery, moderate quantities of brick and tile and a fairly large amount of animal bone. [AIP] |
