Abstract: |
The excavation of evaluation Trenches 1 and 2 revealed a posthole in Trench 1 and two walls in Trench 2. The remains likely date to the 19th century and relate to back yard and/or garden plots. The two walls identified in Trench 2 likely correspond to features visible on late 19th to early 20th century Ordnance Survey (OS) mapping. Trench 3 revealed archaeological remains consisting of pits, postholes, a ditch, a gully and a possible soakaway. The earliest features encountered were two pits (313 and 315) at the eastern end of the trench, close to the line of Top Street. Pit 313 contained the remains of three terrier-like dogs and was cut by pit 315, which dated to the 17th to 18th centuries. Further 17th to 18th century pottery was recovered residually from later features in Trench 3 confirming activity on Site during the period. The remaining features in the trench were dated to the late 19th to 20th centuries either by the artefact assemblage, by association or by cartographic and/or photographic evidence. |
