Abstract: |
This document details the results of an Archaeological Monitoring and Recording scheme, prepared for John Halton Design on behalf of Mr. Sowerby, associated with the addition of a new conservatory and a garage to the existing buildings at 17 Eastgate, Lincoln. The site lies in the upper city, less than 100m north-east of Lincoln Cathedral. The property lies on the corner of Eastgate and Priory Road/Nettleham Road, centred on SK 9793 7193. The existing stone built property at 17 Eastgate was first built in the mid 17th century, and is protected by Grade II Listed Building status. It is flanked to the east by No. 18, a mid 18th century private dwelling, and lies close to the Church of St. Peter built in 1870; a mid 18th century ashlar boundary stone is set into the front wall of the property, paired with another on the south side of Eastgate. All of these buildings are also Grade II Listed Buildings. The monitoring of the groundworks revealed a depth of 0.85m of modern overburden. This sealed a thick, undated deposit of limestone rich gritty silt that continued beyond the limit of excavation. This was cut by a linear feature, possibly representing a drain of early modern date, although no finds were recovered, and no conclusive date could be suggested. |
