Abstract: |
An evaluation was carried out at a proposed development site which was thought to have potential for surviving archaeological remains, particularly of the medieval period but also of prehistoric and Roman date. Much 19th-20th century disturbance was revealed, and a number of walls, a well and a stone-lined culvert were recorded. 19th-20th century walls, road surfaces and cobbled areas were exposed within a trench outside the White Hart public house. None of the trenches contained identifiably pre-modern archaeology, although one unstratified fragment of late medieval pottery and a sherd of early medieval pottery were recovered. It was noted that parts of the site considered to be of particular potential archaeological interest were inaccessible and were thus not investigated. [AIP] |
