Abstract:		 The archaeological investigation consisted of the excavation of a rectangular plot of land (Trenches 2 and 3) measuring c. 10m square located in the southern part 5 Tyres Gate. Following the finding from the evaluation (Langthorne 2017), the archaeological excavation found further evidence of post-medieval activity spanning from the 17th to the 19th century. In Trenches 2 and 3 a sequence of reclamation deposits was sealed by a chalk and mortar external floor, located in the southern part of the site, which was dated to the mid-18th century. The chalk and mortar floor was truncated by the construction of a north-east to south-west orientated timber structure interpreted as a narrow drainage canal dated to the mid to late 18th century. This structure was probably associated with the tanning activity as shown on the OS map of 1872. To the north of the drainage canal a parallel ditch was also interpreted as a drainage ditch. Both ditch and canal extended beyond the west and east limit of excavation of Trenches 2 and 3 and later went out of use when they silted up with of silty clay. During the late 18th to early 19th century a levelling layer was laid across the site. This was sealed, in the north part of Trench 3, by a small patch of very well compacted layer with a spread of re-used roof tiles which was interpreted as part of a yard surface associated with the late 18th to early 19th century re-development of the site.
