Abstract: |
The main aim of the evaluation was to determine if there were any significant archaeological remains in the area to be developed; to form an understanding of their value and their potential to shed light on the subsequent development of the area. The objectives were to locate, record and analyse archaeological materials and
deposits and to disseminate the results in an appropriate format. An archaeological evaluation consisting of a single trial trench was undertaken. The evaluation established that significant archaeological deposits were unlikely to be disturbed by the construction of the new office building. Although the development site lies within the bounds of the medieval settlement, as confirmed by the presence of possible
medieval building remains found during previous archaeological work at ‘Eureka’, these did not extend as far as the evaluation trench. The layer containing 19th and 20th century pottery may be associated with dumping from the nearby farm as its associated muck heap was known to be in this area in the mid-20th century (William Line, pers. comm.) and may have reflected a long term use of that part of the farmyard site. |
