| Abstract: |
The site lay just outside the lines of the various defensive ditches that have flanked the City Wall since Roman times. It was unlikely to have been built up in medieval times but the eastern side of Great Southernhay Lane was developed by the late 16th century. No Scheduled Ancient Monuments were located within the area although it did fall within the boundary of the Area of Archaeological Importance. The extent of disturbance following wartime bombing and redevelopment was not known. No specific sites of archaeological interest have been located but there was some potential for Roman extra-mural occupation, both civil and military. The Civil War defences erected by both armies after 1643, consisting of a series of banks, ditches and covered ways, were also thought to be impacted. [Au(adp)] |
