Abstract: |
The final report describes the results of an archaeological watching brief at Fieldview Garage and Stables, Barnston, Wirral, Merseyside. The site has planning permission for the conversion and extension of the existing garage to residential accommodation. No archaeological deposits were exposed during the works, though this may be a consequence of the relatively restricted extent of the excavation, rather than the absence of early settlement and activity in the wider, unexcavated, area. The relative ground levels suggest that the garage/stables were constructed on a plot formed by terracing into a slight slope in the 20th century. The finds of medieval and post-medieval ceramics are typical of the disposal of domestic waste during these periods and although they provide evidence for settlement in the vicinity of the watching brief from about the 14th century onwards they are of no further significance. |
