| Abstract: |
An evaluation was carried out at a proposed development site within an Archaeological Priority Zone. Prehistoric finds, Roman burials and quarry pits had been recorded in the area, and an 11th century manor house may have lain nearby. Medieval pits, a possible ditch, and residual prehistoric and Roman pottery were found. A 15th-16th century wall, a later basement and a well were also recorded. It was concluded that an excavation or an alternative mitigation strategy would be necessary. [AIP] |
