Abstract: |
Trial trenching evaluation to test the Engineers' Triangle site for archaeological remains generally, but specifcilaly to test the extent of survival of several railway engine sheds of mid-19th century date. The work recorded no deposits of proven pre-industrial era date, although Roman and medieval artefacts were recovered as residual items in later strata. The main findings of the work were the exceptionally well-preserved floors of two roundhouse engine sheds, along with the less well-preserved remains of a third (the earliest roundhouse at the site) and a 'straight' shed dating from 1841, this the earliest structure to be located. |
