Abstract:		 Two evaluation trenches, aligned roughly N-S, were excavated across the site. Trench 1 was located slightly west of the centre of the site and trench 2 in the east side of the site. Both trenches measures 10m by 1.80m meters. Both trenches revealed extensive layers of made ground and natural sands and gravel overlain by thin layer brickearth were recorded at 2.80m (15.36m OD) below present ground level in Trench 1 and 2.60m (15.59m OD) below present ground level in Trench 2. A small red brick lined well/ sump [2] (0.62m in diameter) was recorded in the southern end of Trench 1 directly below and sealed by the floor of the recently demolished building. Its fill [1] consisted mainly of large broken red tiles, possibly paving slabs. In addition a large (2.60m in diameter) circular red brick well or vat [5] was recorded cutting into the made ground deposits in the southern end of trench 2. The appears to have briefly function as a rubbish/cess pit and its fill [4] contained post-medieval pottery (date of deposition between c 1830-50) and domestic objects.. The brick lined structure had an 'outlet' (west side), a circular culvert, possibly for directing water for use elsewhere from the well. Due to the limits of the evaluation it was not possible to determine where it was heading and to positively identify its function. The well /vat was later converted for use as a soakaway, prior its use as a rubbish pit, and a ceramic pipe leading to it and another leading from it were added.
