Abstract: |
An archaeological watching brief was undertaken during the extension to the Co-Op Supermarket. The work was undertaken within the area of a tarmac car park immediately to the north of the existing Co-Op building. Therefore there was no topsoil strip prior to excavation. The excavation of the foundation trenches revealed probable medieval ditches and post holes/pits. A layer containing abundant dressed sandstone blocks, mortar and slate was also identified and this related to the demolition of the former Sunday School that was constructed on the site in 1877.
