Abstract:
Although terracing for the basements of the existing buildings led to the truncation of archaeological layers; deep cut features such as rubbish pits and cesspits were recorded. The earliest features to survive were seven Middle Saxon rubbish pits, recorded in six test pits to the west of the site, whilst later features, dated to the 17th century, comprised brick-lined cesspits and a brick wall, also recorded in the western half of the site. The location of the features suggested that the western half of the site had a higher potential for the recover of archaeological remains. [Au(abr)]
