Abstract: |
The evaluation comprised the excavation of two trenches measuring 9.30m x 1.80m and 10.50m x 1.80m to depths of 1.50m and 1.00m, respectively. The evaluation was designed to provide information on the character, extent, date and state of preservation of any below ground archaeological remains that may be present within the development area. The natural mid brown sand horizon was encountered in both trenches and recorded at a height of between 60.90mOD and 61.05mOD. Both trenches suggested the natural horizon had been previously disturbed with significant truncation observed in Trench 1. The brick wall in Trench 2 is likely to relate to cartographic evidence from the 1897 OS map and is likely to represent part of the garden wall of Jubilee Cottages. The ceramic assemblage recovered from Trench 2 dates to the late 19th or early 20th century and is most likely related to later development of the site. The linear features in Trenches 1 and 2 could not be confidently dated due to truncation from later building work, most notably the foundations of the possible cellar in Trench 1, but these are likely to be early 20th century in date. They may represent further garden related features. |
