| Abstract: |
<summary>East Street runs along the approximate northern line of the Saxon defences. 77 East Street was a small 18th century cottage which was due to be demolished to allow the construction of new buildings by the Cathedral School. Three trenches were excavated to establish the depth of significant archaeological levels in the development area. These were found at a depth of approximately 1.5m and were sealed by a thick layer of soil. This was associated with the gardens of 1 Castle Street, an imposing 18th century house to the south in whose curtilage No 77 was built. The plans for the new buildings were modified to protect the important levels as far as practicable by the use of pile foundations. {italon}Sec(21a){italoff} {italon}SMR Primary Record Numbers:{italoff} HWCM20079 |
