Abstract:
Monitored groundworks at the Square exposed predominantly post-medieval features, the majority of which related to the adjacent 18th-century listed building. Several archaeological deposits and features were identified within the Site, including a post-medieval subsoil, the remains of several walls, a yard surface and the foundations of a small building. While the majority of these features were 19th-century red brick structures, one was a 20th-century concrete wall. This had been constructed on the truncated remains of an 18th- to 19th-century brick wall. The former yard surface comprised a single skin of red bricks, with the area bounded by a red brick wall. The foundations of a small, brick-built structure are likely to have been associated with a now-demolished lean-to building, the scar of which was visible on the wall of the adjacent listed building. Although the results from the watching brief were relatively limited, they suggest that post-medieval and modern developments may not have eradicated evidence of earlier phases of occupation at similar sites in the immediate area.
