| Abstract: |
Six evaluation trenches were excavated on the site of a proposed development. The earliest finds recovered were a few sherds of Bronze Age pottery recovered from a medieval pit. A possible Roman period feature/layer was identified and several residual Roman finds were recovered from across the site. Most of the features dated to the 13th-14th centuries, consisting of pits, remains of timber buildings, cobbled surfaces and a possible well. These features were sealed by agricultural layers, suggesting a contraction of the town. [Au(abr)] |
