Description
{1} Eight trenches were excavated, though one could not be evaluated due to the presence of asbestos. Principal archaeological remains included 12th-14th century medieval ditches and pits, stone walls and demolition deposits. The stone walls, dated to the medieval period, were present in three trenches and may be part of buildings from that period. Some evidence existed for light industry on site, possibly including the processing of animal skins and hides. Soil sampling identified excellent survival of environmental remains.
