Description
{1} Two boreholes and two test-pits dug for geotechnical purposes were also watched by an archaeologist. The boreholes on the site itself are not in themselves conclusive, but suggest the presence of some archaeology at depth. The test pits are inconclusive since the sequence they elucidate is too short to compare favourably with the boreholes. Their results corroborate details of 1982 fieldwork which noted that between 1 m and 1.7m of modern overburden covers any significant archaeology on this site, which is also truncated by at least one cellar and a buried tank at the frontage .
