Abstract: |
A watching brief was carried out during groundworks for a residential development, at a site where an earlier evaluation had revealed a prehistoric ditch and pit and a Roman pit. A Carmelite friary founded in 1292 was located immediately to the west, and documentary evidence indicated that an area of fish ponds, the possible location of a watermill and a cemetery may have lain within the development site. During the watching brief, a rectangular timber-lined pit filled with ash, coke, gravel and early 20th century bottles was observed. This could be dated to the late 19th century, as it appeared on the 1897 Ordnance Survey map, but not on the 1873 map. No further features were discovered. [AIP] |
