Watching Brief (26 May 2017)
NS 87954 43782 A watching brief was carried out, 26 May
2017, during ground reduction and excavation relating to
the construction of two bed and breakfast units. The work
recorded a rich garden topsoil, which contained a number of
finds dating to the 19th century. It is considered that this area
was probably outside the earlier settlement and its appearance
is consistent with the backlands and formal gardens shown
on 19th-century maps.
