Abstract: |
<summary>The evaluation uncovered numerous periglacial bioturbation structures and revealed that basements had truncated virtually all the site to a certain depth. Roman activity was recognised in the form of quarry pits and dump layers. A well and cess and rubbish pits showed that the land was probably the backplots to nearby buildings in the Medieval period, and post-medieval remains indicated that this arrangement continued until the (demolished) modern building was built. {italon}AIP{italoff}{spacea} |
