Abstract: |
The trial trenches and watching brief showed that substantial below ground remains of the former tannery survived relatively intact across the majority of the area of the tan yard up to a level at or very close to the contemporary ground surface. Across much of the area, the tannery remains identified corresponded closely with features shown on the 1860 plan of the site. The tanning pits had generally been infilled with a variety of dumps of soil, rubble and ash. Little evidence survived for the tan yard surface. Possible evidence for undated earlier activity in the form of part of a cut feature was noted on the trial trench. [Au(abr)] |
