Abstract:
An evaluation was undertaken at the proposed site of a development which included sub-surface car-parking. Evidence of mesolithic and neolithic activity had been excavated nearby, and a Roman boat had been found 60m to the west. During the evaluation, a piece of burnt flint was recovered. 18th century clay pipe, pottery and glass fragments were also found. It was concluded that mass excavation during development should be carried out under archaeological observation. [AIP]
