Abstract:
The evaluation was designed to discover the date, nature and state of preservation of any archaeological deposits which might be present within the area of the development. The work undertaken involved the examination of early map evidence as well as records of archaeological remains in the area and local historical journals and other publications. The excavation of two evaluation trenches designed to cover a representative sample of the area to be developed followed this. The trenches were located within the proposed new footprint or area most likely to be affected by the development. The evaluation trenches revealed no evidence of medieval or significant post-medieval activity on the site. No evidence of the suggested ridge and furrow was identified either as surviving visible earthworks or as buried remains. It is possible that such evidence had been previously truncated or removed by activity associated with the creation of Dartmouth Park in 1877 or more recent groundworks such as ploughing. However it is more likely the extent of the ridge and furrow recorded and visible to the south of the site is confined to that area and did not extend as far as the site.No evidence of prehistoric activity was recorded and the only finds were post-medieval pottery, which represented a normal small assemblage resulting from low level activities on or around the site during the 19th and 20th centuries.
