Abstract:
Natural deposits consisted of mid brown-orange sand at 1.30m OD in the north of the site, sloping gradually to the south where a channel crossed the site. Roman dumped deposits were found over the channel in which was cut a Roman burial. On the higher ground, the possible remains of Roman burnt timber-framed buildings were found as well as Roman pits and dumps. Parts of the 1st-4th century building complex first excavated in 15SKS80 were also found here in the form of opus signinum and tessellated floors and robber trenches. Pottery from material overlying one floor was dated AD 120-160. The building was cut by two more Roman burials. There was no evidence of medieval features on the site but medieval pottery dating to 1050-1150, was found in later post-medieval contexts. Of the post-medieval features, the floor of a stone-flagged cellar was recorded as well as some brick-lined cellars and wells. Several fragments of clay pipe kiln muffle were found in a 19th century dumped deposit. Part of a kiln was found in 15SKS80 and it may be that this debris came from that kiln. A stoneware spirit flask is of interest as is has a local trade stamp from 'RED CROSS STREET, BORO'. The evaluation defined the limits of the Cross Bones burial ground in operation 1665-1853, but the burials were left in situ.
