Abstract: |
A single trench measuring 7.5 m (l) x 1.8 m (w) to a depth of 0.32 m was excavated across the footprint of the proposed new garage. The results suggest that the topsoil had been imported to return the plot to pasture, most likely at some point within the last 50 years. Remnants of a truncated yard surface were evident beneath the topsoil layer. This corresponds to observations made by Canham in 1998, who observed that the land adjacent to Hockets had been levelled and disturbed by previous construction. |
