Abstract: |
An archaeological evaluation was undertaken by AOC Archaeology Group on the 11th and 12th April 2007 at the site of 4 to 6 Church Street, Oakham . The aim of the evaluation was to assess the impact of the proposed residential redevelopment on any surviving archaeological remains. The evaluation comprised three machine excavated trenches. All three trenches were recognised as containing archaeological features. Trench 1 and 3 contained possible wells, one of which was dated to the early post-medieval period, the other well was undated. Trench 2 contained a variety of features, including a boundary ditch, small pit, and several postholes. All features in trench 2 were undated, except for a posthole which dated to the post-medieval period. The evaluation trenches demonstrated that a moderate density of archaeological features survive, in a good state of preservation, across the full area of the site. Overburden on site is limited due to a previous phase of horizontal truncation. |
