Abstract: |
The field evaluation, of four trenches, revealed substantial later truncation of the site, in addition to evidence of the 19th and 20th century riverside wharves. Trench 3, near Abbey Road frontage revealed evidence of post-medieval sumps and tow e/w aligned channels of medieval date leading to the river. Trench 4, also close to the Abbey Road revealed a further E/W aligned channel with evidence of wooden revetting along its southern edge. Its lower fills contained quantities of 12th century pottery, and its upper fill contained High Medieval sherds. A further small, irregular pit contained 12th century sherds. EH GLAAS subsequently required full excavation of the channel as it occurred within Trench 4, which confirmed the dating of the feature and established the revetting to be largely uniform along the line of the channel.[Au(adp)] |
