April 2012. Trial Trench.
Evaluation of proposed development site.
The singe trial trench excavated revealed a single, undated feature of uncertain type, along with medieval and post-medieval pottery and building material. The south-eastern part of the site, adjacent to Priory Road, may have been deliberately made-up in the post medieval or later periods through the dumping of material. A single ashlar block and brick of possible late medieval date may derive from the Priory to the south of the site.
See report (S1) for further details.
