Description
Four trenches were opened down to the top of the natural geology or the archaeological horizon whereupon archaeological features were hand excavated.
NRHE data transfer:
Site code: NSRE13. Archaeological Evaluation comprising three trenches equalling 40m in total length. They revealed the presence of undated linear features and pits and a deposit containing post-medieval and early-modern pottery. These features are likely to have been associated with backplots of post-medieval housing ling the adjacent street fronts. The relative paucity of artefactual material indicates the remains are not associated with medieval settlement or market activity and are considered to be of local significance. Information from OASIS Online Form.
