Abstract: |
Wessex Archaeology Ltd (Sheffield) was commissioned to undertake an archaeological evaluation on a small plot of land to the north of Porter Brook, at Summerfield Street, Sheffield. This is the first phase of a two phased development of the site. This report details the results of the archaeological investigation relating to Phase 1 of the development. The evaluation comprised the excavation of a single 10m x 4m trench. The evaluation trench focussed on an area of land historically used as allotments in the mid 19th century and as the rear yards of terraced housing in the later 19th century. The work identified undulating natural river gravels overlain by silts, which were probably laid down during the 18th and 19th centuries. No evidence for walling or pathways relating to the 19th century was uncovered. |
