Full Description
October 2003. Trial Trenching.
Evaluation of site of proposed residential development. Contexts 1 to 29 used.

Report (S1) includes reference to a late medieval/early post-medieval wall [07] dated by some bricks. In the opinion of E. Rose (NLA), these are 19th century, thereby casting doubt upon this earlier phase of construction.
