Full Description
September 2005. Trial Trenching.
Evaluation of proposed development site. Contexts 1-256 used.
Work revealed three ditches and a couple of possible pits some of which were dated by pottery to the Late Saxon or early medieval period. At a higher level were two linear features which may represent paths or cart tracks. In the upper part of the trenches were the remains of 19th century buildings that were destroyed around World War Two.
