Abstract: |
A trial trench evaluation was carried out at the above site from 15th -17th April 2009 in advance of a proposal to redevelop the site. This followed a visit on 26th March 2009 to record visible Second World War remains, and a programme of building recording for two 19th century buildings. The redevelopment involves the construction of residential properties and associated parking. A number of features of archaeological interest were recorded during the work. Ephemeral evidence for low level prehistoric activity was present at the eastern end of the site. Across much of the site bands of grey were recorded, possibly formed by geological or agricultural processes. The site was then occupied by trees, regular rows of which were recorded, probably forming an orchard, bounded by a ditch in the post-medieval period. Features of uncertain function possibly related to gardens were scattered across the site. A number of foundations for 19th century and Second World War buildings were also recorded during the evaluation. In addition to the trial trenching for below ground remains, a survey of the remains of Second World War structures was undertaken during and in some cases after their demolition. An attempt has been made to incorporate this information with archival and other sources to determine the layout of the military facility. |
