Abstract:
A watching brief was carried out at 2-6 Wild's Rents intermittently between 28th February and 17th March 2014 and consisted of the archaeological monitoring of underpinning works, a lift shaft and new foundations relating to a redevelopment of the site for two new dwellings. 1.3The watching brief encountered natural deposits consistent with the known underlying geology along with alluvial deposits associated with the River Neckinger. Cutting the natural in one trench was the remains of a single probable pit of uncertain date which contained a single sherd of residual Roman samian pottery. A sequence of late post-medieval ploughsoil sealed by 19th century made ground sealed the alluvium in some of the trenches. Modern concrete sealed all deposits of the trenches which represented the current ground level. The watching brief has illustrated that in the location of the basement the vast majority of any potentially underlying archaeological deposits or features have been severely truncated; modern concrete directly seals the natural stratigraphy. The presence of a possible pit however does suggest that deeper cut archaeological features may still survive. The watching brief trenches outside the basement recorded a more extensive depositional sequence from the undated alluvium to the later post-medieval and 19th century.
