Abstract: |
A watching brief was undertaken during the excavation of 7 pile positions and 4 soakaways. Soakaways 1 & 2 between the city walls revealed sequences of deposits and some cut features with associated stonework; soakaway 3 in a vegetable garden produced garden soils as previously identified; soakaway 4 produced a shallow retaining wall running north-south, with made ground to the west and garden soils to the east. A stone-lined culvert was exposed at the base of the outer city wall in a drain run from soakaway 4. The pile positons showed details of the construction and periodic repair of the outer city wall and also showed a sequence of dumped deposits running between the walls to a depth of one metre.
