Description
An Archaeological watching brief carried out during the excavation of footings uncovered evidence of gravel quarrying and the build up or dumping of a green/brown loam. This is interpreted as waste material from the town probably from the medieval period. A sketch of the sections was made alongside an annotated plan. Approximately 90% of the footings were seen and some spoil was examined on site.
