Full Description
Evaluation trenching showed that the area had been waterlogged and undeveloped for much of the city's history. Overlying natural river gravels were water-lain sediments of RB date, which contained the substantial remains of a RB spade. These were sealed by peat containing the timbers of a fence and wooden hurdle, probably intended as a walkway. Pottery lying on this hurdle has been dated to c.1075-1200. (1)
