Abstract: |
The evaluation carried out in October 2012 found potential for survival cut features such as ditches, pits and post holes concentrated in the area of slightly higher ground in the south western area of the site. A 15m x 15m trench was opened up in the area to the rear of 2 Commerce Road which included the previously evaluation Trench 3. The earliest activity comprised two parallel curvilinear ditches and in the south-western area of the site.The ditches had been recut or replaced by two wider parallel ditches. At the terminus of the outer ditch was a pair of double post holes. On the SE side of the trench was a linear Roman ditch which extended beyond the limit of excavation to the NE and SW. It runs parallel to the Roman Road located approximately 135m to the SE of the site. There was a series of post-medieval post holes across the site which may be related to the site's later use as a market garden. |
