Description

The proposed development area (PDA) is situated just outside the Anglo Saxon and medieval town defences and very close to the river. Previous archaeological interventions adjacent to the PDA have revealed well preserved occupation deposits dating from the Anglo-Saxon period through to the medieval period. There is a high potential for encountering a large variety of archaeological features within the PDA including rubbish pits, wells, kilns, ovens and buildings, as well as a wide range of artefacts from the Anglo Saxon, medieval and post medieval periods.
