Description
Observations were made when a shaft was excavated to gain access to a sewer. Modern service trenches and 19th century cellaring had truncated much of the archaeological deposits in the area. Medieval pottery was found in a soil which was interpreted as a plough soil. It sealed a ditch or pit base which it was suggested could date to the Roman period.
