Archaeological Evaluation (29 April 2013 - 2 May 2013)
NT 256 754 An evaluation was carried out, 29 April – 2 May 2013, in advance of a proposed residential development. Although the majority of the site had been truncated, with limited survival of in situ original deposits, the truncated remains of several brick structural elements were recorded. These included the remains of a building visible on the OS map of 1908. A further small brick surface was also recorded along the S boundary of the site. This was directly overlain by concrete and formed a layer of hard standing, capping a deposit of made ground. The disturbed remains of the hard standing were visible in several trenches along the SE boundary. No archaeological remains predating the late 19th /early 20th centuries were recorded.
