Description

A small evaluation, consisting of 35m of trenching, on land to the east and north of the Elephant and Castle Inn. Trench 1 was 28m long, 1.8m wide and up to 0.7m deep. It was originally intended to be 30m long but its was necessary for this trench to be cut short at 28m, due to an obstruction caused by a smaller digger that had broken down near the north-eastern boundary. Trench 2 was 5m long, 1.8m wide and up to 1.1m deep. No archaeologically relevant finds or deposits were encountered. Modern disturbance was noted in both trenches, over 1.1m deep truncation in trench 2 near the site frontage onto The Street.
