Abstract:		 A single 8m long trench was excavated as part of the evaluation. The trenching revealed three undated features comprising a pit or post hole, a feature of uncertain form and a ditch. The ditch was the latest of these undated features. As this was on a slightly different alignment to boundaries recorded on consulted Ordnance Survey maps of the area it is possible that these features pre-date the 20th century layout of this part of the settlement. However, as no finds retrieved during the investigation pre-dated the mid 16th to 18th centuries there was no clear evidence for earlier activity at the site. The remainder of features on the site were of late 18th to 19th century date. These included a brick wall corresponding to a building depicted on Ordnance Survey maps of the site and an earlier ditch with a similar alignment and position to the wall. Both the wall and ditch apparently marked the boundary between the rear of properties fronting onto Red Lion Square to the north and the rear of properties fronting onto High Street to the east. A small quantity of post-medieval pottery and a single undated animal bone were retrieved during the investigation.
