Abstract:		 The excavation comprised an area measuring 7m x 17m. Natural deposits were evident as bands of sand and gravel capped in some areas by a sandy brickearth type deposit. Two parallel gullies, running north - south were recorded across the site, dating from the Late Iron Age (50 BC-AD 25). The western gully continued as a boundary and was re-cut by two components of a much larger ditch. The termini of these ditches contained a considerable quantity of Iron Age pottery (AD 25-50/60) as well as some slag and hearth lining. It is probable that the area investigated was open ground in the medieval and post-medieval periods, possibly used for horticultural purposes such as market gardening to supply fresh goods to the city. No evidence was uncovered to suggest the presence of medieval or post-medieval structures earlier than the 19th century.
