Description

Following an evaluation by trial trenching, an archaeological monitoring of ground works was carried out on the site of a residential development located within the former precinct of the Dominican Priory (SUY 005). All the foundation trenches for the new buildings (approx 60m in total) were observed. The monitoring took place on 3 separate occasions 20/24/27 June 2014. The foundation trenches were only 0.5m wide but upto 2m deep, and were generally dug to the surface of the natural. The trench dimensions meant that it was not always possible to access the excavations to make detailed records (S1).
