Abstract: |
Four trial trenches were excavated as an evaluation of the site in advance of proposed residential redevelopment. The two trenches in the northern part of the site, behind Kildare House, revealed shallow natural sandy gravel truncated by 20th century structures and a reinforced concrete slab surface. The trench dug alongside Tyrone House was truncated by service pipe trenches and 20th century pits. A possible palaeo-channel cut into the natural at the northern end of the trench. The trench in the south-western corner of the site, close to the Old Ford Road, demonstrated the presence of 18th and 19th century pits. East of the gas mains in front of Kildare House the trench revealed three quarry pits dating to the 19th century. A residual Roman potsherd was found in a small layer of re-deposited natural brickearth. [Au(abr)] |
