Abstract: |
The watching brief was commissioned in order to ensure any further medieval features were identified and recorded prior to their disturbance by the development. The watching brief was confined to groundworks within the footprint of the new building. This area was subdivided into working areas designated as Trenches 3 and 4, and Areas 3 to 5. The watching brief confirmed that areas of the Site previously built upon in the 20th century were heavily truncated and contained no archaeological features. Outside of the footprint of the former council building however, the watching brief identified a series of probable rubbish pits, with the available dating evidence suggesting they are associated with the post-medieval use of the Site as back garden plots. The results of the watching brief are reflective of the archaeology identified by the previous phase of trenching. |
