Description
Standing buildings on the Bank Street frontage of the site dated principally from the late 18th and early 19th centuries, and were underlain by extensive cellars partly of 17th century date. In order to assess the potential of the area to the rear, a trench of about 50m2 was excavated in June and July 1971, recent levels being removed mechanically. The results, although not without interest, did not justify further work.
