Abstract: |
Three trenches were excavated within those parts of the site identified as holding some potential for the presence of buried archaeological remains. The evaluation established that modern truncation and disturbance have affected the site; earlier soils had evidently been removed and areas of modern make-up laid down during the previous development. Over the majority of the site these extended to the depth of the natural clay, whereas at the far north end of site a thin layer of remnant subsoil survived beneath the later modern deposits. This layer contained small fragments of charcoal and seemingly modern brick or tile. No archaeological remains were found in the trenches. It is considered that the proposed redevelopment of the site will have a low impact upon the heritage resource of this location. |
