Abstract: |
The area was an important part of medieval Beverley, and excavations undertaken between 1998 and 2000 had revealed evidence for medieval and post-medieval occupation, as well as for industrial activity, including local pottery making and clay extraction for either tile or pottery making. The December 2000 evaluation produced similar evidence of general ground-raising, medieval pitting for clay extraction and domestic waste disposal, and a sequence of medieval property boundaries and yards. There seemed to have been a hiatus in activity between the end of the 16th and late 18th centuries, following which, the site was lain out on new lines for apparent industrial use. This may have included foundry work, since thick layers of ash, coal and slag were found. The structural remains were few, but included the 16th century chalk foundation for a boundary wall, replacing earlier features, and a late 18th century brick culvert or cesspit. [Au(abr)] |
