Type and Period
Description
1993. Trial trenching.
Archaeological evaluation of the proposed development area at Millview Meadows revealed no activity on the site demonstrably earlier than the 19th century. The site appears to have been built-up to the north and may have been levelled to the south. Two trenches were excavated, one of which produced 19th century brick and tile and an open feature which may be a pond. The second trench produced a dump of badly corroded 19th century metal and bone objects. <1>
