Abstract: |
An evaluation of the site was undertaken in response to a condition upon planning permission for the development of the site. Seven trenches were excavated representing a 6.6% sample of the total area of the site. A further five engineers test pits were also observed and recorded. Four significant phases of activity were identified; Roman, represented by a well into which a body had been deposited, several pits, one of which contained a further burial, and a ditch; 17th or 18th century farm buildings represented by several post holes and a robbed out wall in the eastern part of the site; 18th and 19th century brewing; 19th century development along Orchard Row. No evidence of medieval activity was observed in any of the trenches. [Au(adp)] |
