Abstract:
The excavations revealed a total of 19 inhumations and 29 cremations spanning the entire Roman period. The eastern (waterlogged) side of the site had been built up substantially during the medieval period. During the medieval period the site was also used for pitting. A chalk wall was the only evidence of a medieval structure. The post-medieval phase of the site appeared to have been largely truncated away by modern activity. A brick wall dated to the period after the Great Fire of 1666 topped the medieval chalk wall. A brick well of the Stuart period or later was excavated. A single post-medieval pit was excavated towards the Fleet. Perhaps associated with this pit was another post-medieval structure seen c.10 metres to the west. A brick culvert was observed running north-south though both trenches C and B during the open area watching brief. An early post-medieval possible fencing or boundary marker was seen at the eastern end of Trench C. [Au(adp)]
