Abstract: |
Archaeological monitoring and recording was carried out in an area where previous archaeological evaluation had exposed the remains of the 1750s Devonport Dock Lines. The current investigation exposed further lengths of 1750s Dock Line ditch including parts of retaining walls. The ditch went out of use in the 1850s or 1860s when the defences were realigned and moved to the west. The associated rampart was slighted and backfilled into the ditch. A wall defining one side of a path below the rampart was also exposed, and previously-recorded masonry possibly associated with a bridge was also re-excavated. |
