Abstract: |
During the course of the evaluation four trenches were excavated. Three ditches and a possible feature were identified. The only dateable feature was a late medieval boundary or drainage ditch. The other two ditches were adjacent to and parallel with Back Lane, and therefore also parallel with the Saxon rampart. The latest of these features was interpreted as a post-medieval roadside ditch, but the earlier ditch may have been a defensive ditch contemporary with the Saxon burh bank or earlier ditches recorded beneath the rampart. It measured 2.6m wide and was not bottomed at 0.7m deep. [Au(abr)] |
