Abstract:		 The hard standing had been removed prior to the arrival of the archaeologist. Foundation trenches were then excavated to c. 1.5m depth and were generally 600mm wide. The investigation area appears to cover parts of the rear area of three plots fronting onto Long Street. The middle and east plot boundary is still in use while the boundary between the middle and west plots has not been in constant use and today is not respected by the use of the area to the rear of 39-45 Long Street. The middle plot appears to have been used for horticultural practises in two different periods represented by deposits (07) and (06). These are both post-medieval deposits as indicated by the piece of clay tobacco pipe in the top of (07). To the west the single deposit (10) again appears to have been a horticultural deposit with fragments of brick and tile incorporated into it. The boundary [09} between the middle and west plots was demolished and mortar surface (05) was laid down in both plots although it did not extend the full width of the middle plot. The surface is of a type that is used within a building and may have been for the south building shown on the 1889 OS map. This surface and presumed building went out of use and the boundary wall was rebuilt with a stone-paved surface (03) laid in the middle plot. The paving probably respected the southern end of the inverted L-shape building shown on the same map. This surface was replaced by a cinder surface (03) after which the boundary wall was demolished and later surfaces covered both the middle and west plots. The east plot again appears to have had a horticultural use with deposit (18), which was cut by a post-medieval pit. After that further deposits (17 and 15) and surfaces (16 and 14) were laid down. The culvert that was found is still active. Whether it is just taking rainwater downhill from the roads to the north or whether a small stream has been culverted is unknown.
