Abstract:
In September and October 2008, Archaeological Solutions Ltd (AS) carried out an archaeological evaluation of land at 12 Jobs Lane. A residential development is proposed for the site comprising the construction of two residential dwellings with associated garages, access and services. The evaluation was required to comply with a planning condition. The desk-based assessment showed potential for numerous periods, predominantly the prehistoric, Roman and medieval periods. The evaluation revealed a broad range of features dating from the early Bronze Age (2100-1700 BC) to the modern (1900+) period. An early Bronze Age pit a ''V'' shaped Roman ditch, and a medieval pit and posthole were revealed. Several undated features including a curvilinear gully, two postholes and two pits were also excavated. The site had clearly undergone some extensive activity in the modern period as several modern rubbish pits and evidence of demolition of old buildings was revealed to the south-east area. Imported topsoil suggested landscaping of the site when the current building was constructed in the 1960''s. The presence of early Bronze Age activity broadens current understanding of prehistoric activity in the area, and the presence of Roman and medieval features contributes to the picture of these periods as provided by previous archaeological work to the north of the site.
