Abstract: |
A watching brief was maintained during the excavation of a trench to install the base for a new sign. Upper deposits and the finds found within them suggested that they comprise made ground of imported material. More interesting is the discrete layer of clay below, which has been deliberately deposited, possibly related to the installation of the graveyard behind which sits at a higher level than the bank, in turn higher than the soft deposits which currently cover the floor of the Nave. It is also worth noting that clay linings are also used in garden parterres. |
