Abstract: |
Three test pits were excavated in order to assess the archaeological preservation levels underneath the current basements at the site. The evaluation revealed the remains of undisturbed late Saxon/early medieval horizons underneath the current basement levels. A series of pits containing domestic waste and demolition material were exposed during the excavations. The presence of potential walls and compacted gravel surface would indicate the potential for structural remains to also be present. An absence of clay pipes and modern material suggest that these archaeological horizon may have been sealed in the early post-medieval period. |
