Abstract:		 An archaeological evaluation and watching brief was carried out on behalf of Cgms consulting Ltd. Trenching revealed and archaeological sequence dating from the Roman to post-medieval period. The sequence identified across the site comprises early quarrying and drainage features, potentially dating to between the Roman and late medieval periods followed 16th and 17th century domestic rubbish pits. These were sealed by garden soil. Yard structures were identified with in crane base dating to the 16th and 17th centuries. These potentially represent a medieval or post medieval property boundary. Brick built drainage features were also constructed during this period to replace earlier open ditches. Subsequent to this phase of construction the site underwent a period of ground raising. Later truncation on the site was only apparent toward the western extent of the site within the footprint of the modern basements. It is likely that this truncation will be confined to 17th and 18th century deposits. The site has potential for the survival of Roman through to medieval cut features and soils representing drainage, quarrying and domestic activities and for early post medieval soils and structures. The demolition material identified within trench 2 also suggest the possibility that medieval domestic buildings may be present on site.
