Abstract/Summary

One, possibly two, surfaces that may be remnants of earlier roads were recorded. They were sealed beneath clay deposits containing numerous small off-cuts of leather. All of these deposits are undated. A brick drainage culvert of probable mid to late 19th century date was also recorded. This lay beneath and was cut by modern rubble deposits which in turn were sealed beneath modern road surfaces. No other artefacts were present.
