Abstract/Summary

‘Evaluation of a single vacant plot on the street frontage of Long Street…was carried out by means of two machine-excavated trenches, totalling c. 20m in length. Removal of a deep humic garden soil revealed a small number of shallow gullies and ditches dating from the 12th/13th centuries onwards. These appear to predate any urban expansion along the line of Long Street and may represent either field boundaries or drainage features.’
