Abstract:
Late Victorian buildings in the Market Place, Rugby, were being redeveloped. The Oxford Archaeological Unit was commissioned to re-excavate a number of contractor's test pits previously observed by the Warwickshire Museum in July and August, 1994 [see separate AIP records]; it was felt that earlier deposits might survive below the Victorian levels identified during the watching brief, particularly since an early photograph showed the presence of a post-medieval C17 building on the development area. However, on the basis of the results from two of the test pits (10 and 2), the site appears to have been little used prior to the Victorian period. The depth of activity relating to the construction of the buildings in 1894 and subsequent service intrusions had in all probability removed earlier horizons relating to the C17 building. Where possible the excavations revealed the earliest deposits overlying the natural. No medieval or earlier finds were recovered from any of the layers. The results suggested that medieval horizons, where they occurred in Rugby, were likely to be closer to the town centre.[AIP]
