Abstract: |
In the four test pits and two boreholes undertaken during the evaluation, natural brickearth, sand and the fills of a possible palaeochannel were encountered. No horizontal deposits or features of definite Roman date were recorded: areas of redeposited clay or brickearth in two test pits may have been an exception, but this could only be determined by excavation. The natural and redeposited natural layers were cut by features considered to be of medieval and early post-medieval date, including pits, a masonry-lined well, and brick or chalk foundations. These were often sealed by redeposited brickearth which appeared to have been laid down during the construction of later post-medieval structures, cut in turn by the foundations and services of the present 19th century buildings.
