Abstract: |
<summary>A watching brief was maintained during the excavation of a telecommunications cable trench from Beast Market Hill to Lombard Street. Natural deposits were seen immediately below the road make-up in Beast Market Hill, which, taken with evidence from early maps and plans, suggested that the road was not laid out until after the Civil War. Up to 1.5 metres of stratified deposits, generally of unknown date, were exposed in the other observed lengths of cable trench. Possible fragments of Roman road metalling were seen in Castle Gate and at the junction of Castle Gate and Lombard Street, whilst deposits possibly forming the south-side town rampart were also seen at the latter site. {italon}AIP{italoff} |
