| Abstract: |
The recent history of the site as derived from map evidence was that it was an orchard prior to its development in the 1850s, although given the lack of detail on the tithe map the three tenements shown could conceivably have been present somewhat earlier. The 1802-4 Ordnance Survey drawing suggested that both sides of South Street were largely built-up by then, but the date of this development could not be established by map evidence. The extent of the medieval, or even post-medieval, settlement in this area remained unknown. However, if occupation at an early date was present on the east side of South Street, then associated evidence such as rubbish pits, industrial activity etc., might extend into the rear of the present site.
