NT 1899 7698 An area ground-resistance survey was made approximately E-W from the side of previously excavated trench G across to the wall abutting onto Glebe Road. Undergrowth and trees limited the survey area to 384m2. High resistance appeared on the N side of the survey, which appears to relate to buildings shown on a vennel running W off Old Street on the 1815 map. High resistance at the end of the vennel equates to paving round the still open well. This area is to the W of the linear array survey previously reported (DES 2000, 33).
