Abstract:
Two residential dwellings currently occupy the site. No. 44 is of a single phase building constructed in the early 20th century. It is a simple detached brick-built house with steep pitched tile roofs and gardens to front and back. No 46 is of multiphase construction. It is also a brick-built property, which has had at least two extensions. It is considered to have originally been two semi-detached dwellings, erected in the early 19th century. It was subsequently extended to the north-east soon after in similar style, and to the north-west in the late 19th century. The initial extension was torn down and a single storey replacement erected, in addition to a porch on the front. Two trenches were excavated, one being to rear of each property. Neither revealed any archaeological horizons or features, while a full stratigraphic sequence of topsoil and subsoil was noted overlying the natural sand and pebble gravel. However, post-medieval and modern debris was recovered from the subsoil, while a modern garden feature was noted to cut the natural. In addition the natural was observed to slope down toward the road to the east. It is, therefore, determined that the site was probably only used for agricultural purposes prior to the construction of the two houses.
