Abstract:
Wessex Archaeology was commissioned by ECUS Ltd to carry out an archaeological evaluation at the site of a former iron works and silk mill on land bounded by Carrington Street, Canal Street, Park Street and Wellington Street, NGR SK 35986 35588. Four archaeological evaluation trenches were excavated between the 5th and 10th July 2013. The work followed on from a previous scheme of archaeological evaluation undertaken by ASWYAS (in prep.), who excavated two trenches on the same block as part of a larger scheme. Wessex Archaeology also recently completed a nearby scheme of excavation as part of the larger Castleward development (in prep.) All four trenches demonstrated good preservation of post-medieval archaeological remains and demonstrated the survival of internal details within the various works. Excavation was only possibly to an average depth of 1.2m due to on site safety constriants, and no surfaces were encountered, either at a former ground level or at the base of cellars. Nonetheless, the preservation of deep internal features was demonstrated. Trenching in the centre of the former iron works revealed the most complex phasing and stratigraphy, including lime-mortared (early 19th century) structures. Three of the trenches contained cellars infilled with loose brick rubble to a depth of over 2m, and which may represent large undercrofts used for pulling silk.
