Abstract: |
The site lies in an Archaeological Priority Zone over a former river channel and/or marshy area with a high potential for prehistoric, Roman and geoarchaeological data. The reclamation of the boggy ground took place in the 16th-17th centuries, and the area was developed from the 18th century onwards, which includes the standing 19th-century buildings on the site. A watching brief was carried out on contractors excavations, most of which were no more than 2m deep and revealed a post-medieval grey-black silty garden soil layer dating to the late 18th-early 19th century. Part of a cellar floor dating to the 19th century was also found. |
