Abstract: |
In April 2019 Archaeological Solutions Ltd (AS) carried out a programme of archaeological evaluation by means of a 'strip, map and record' investigation and archaeological monitoring and recording on land at 8-10 Rye Street, Bishop's Stortford, Hertfordshire CM23 2HG (NGR TL 48710 21820; Figs. 1 - 2). The monitoring was also carried out according to the requirements of the Hertfordshire County Council Historic Environment Advisor Team (HCC HEAT), and was required in compliance with a planning condition attached to the planning approval for the construction of a new residential development of 7 terraced dwellings following demolition of the existing buildings (EHDC Planning Ref. 3/18/2677/FUL). At the western end of the stripped area Test Pit 10 revealed ?Ditch F1017. Ditch F1017 cut sand layer L1019 and clay layer L1020. The latter contained 19th - 20th century CBM. No residual archaeological finds were present. The monitoring revealed that the site was much truncated. Made ground, contaminated (hydrocarbon) and demolition layers were revealed. An alluvial layer (L1027) was revealed in Test Pit 12. |
