Description

Early in 1973 29-63 Rayne Road were acquired for redevelopment. The site was trial trenched to assess its potential, ancient remains being found to survive on the road frontage only to the west of an access road. After 51-57 were demolished an open area excavation was carried out in this western part of the site.
