Description
April 2013. Trial trenching.
A total of three trenches were excavated and 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. <1>
