Abstract: |
An archaeological evaluation was undertaken within the basement of Boland House in advance of proposed redevelopment. This entailed the excavation of two trenches and a single trial pit. Natural gravel horizons were identified within both evaluation areas, overlain by alluvial horizons containing prehistoric material, evidence of late 2nd/3rd century Roman occupation and medieval land use dating between late 11th and late 15th centuries. A later construction phase was evident in the form of substantial driven piles, potentially late 17th century in date proceeded by 19th century modifications in the form of masonry walls. |
