Abstract: |
Three trenches were excavated. Trench 1 contained a series of large intersecting pits cut in to the natural clay. They contained large amounts of pottery, bottle glass and animal bone, indicating that the had been backfilled with late 17th and 18th century domestic rubbish. Residual 14th to 16th century pottery indicated late medieval activity in the near vicinity. The pits were sealed below a series of 18th to 19th century ground raising dumps. Trench 2 contained a single linear ditch which appeared to have had its origins in the medieval period, perhaps as early as the 13th to 14th century. The ditch was then sealed below a series of ground raising dumps in to which a mid to late 19th century rubbish pit had been cut. Trench 3 contained a single linear ditch. A small Romano-British pottery assemblage, along with a tile fragment and a small amount of animal bone were recovered from the ditch. [Au(abr)] |
