Description

{1} Evaluation in advance of proposed development to the rear of the Public House followed an assessment. The evaluation found that archaeology only survived in the northern third of the site while the post-medieval buiildings in the southern frontage and backplots had destroyed any earlier archaeology. The northern part of the site had five fairly dispersed and truncated features which consisted of four gullies/ditches and one pit all seemingly of the medieval period. Site code: WSM01
