Abstract: |
A desk-based assessment was carried out in advance of the sale of the former Civic Centre site and adjacent car park. It concluded that the standing building would have truncated any deposits of archaeological significance. The other two-thirds of the site had a potential for archaeological remains as it was used as a car park only. Saxon and medieval archaeology was likely, due to the known history of the town and map evidence. This would include the two known phases of the town's defences, the extramural road (Lady Lane), occupation evidence and possibly a small area of the Norman castle. [Au(adp)] |
