Abstract: |
Six evaluation trenches were excavated, only two of which, numbers 2 and 4, revealed sufficient evidence to merit their extension and more detailed examination. Trench 2 contained a pottery kiln that formerly stood within the Newcastle Street Pottery. Although the kiln was relatively well preserved, it had been disturbed during the 20th century by the insertion of two stanchion bases. The kiln had been constructed with a 'cork' foundation; a method commonly used in north Staffordshire from at least the 19th to the early 20th century. Trench 4 featured the remains of up to five 19th-century properties that formed part of a courtyard housing development. A brick-lined well discovered adjacent to these houses may well have related to their occupation. Directly beneath three of the 19th-century houses were the sandstone foundations of an earlier building, possibly dating back to at least the late 17th century. |
