Abstract: |
A watching brief and recording of a boundary wall was undertaken during landscaping works at the rear of 1-11 Sidwell Street, Exeter. A 14th- or 15th-century boundary wall was recorded and removal of an earth bank behind the wall was monitored. A Saxo-Norman pit was exposed, and several other ditches and postholes may also be of early-medieval date. The earth bank largely comprised dumps of 18th- and 19-century material raising the ground level up within the site. Recording of the boundary wall confirmed observations made in 1994 that the majority of fabric related to the heightening of the wall when the adjacent ground level was raised. Limited evidence for a possible 19th-century building, attached to the side of the wall was also recorded. |
