Group Description
-
- Underlying the modern overburden, lay (594) (subgroup 154), a capping layer in the top of horn core pit {593}, which also contained construction fill material (592), and primary fill (646) (subgroup 154). The pit was built into construction cut [591], which was cut into (626), which overlay, (627), both layers of Post Medieval garden soils. One of the latest features on site was {607}, a series of reused roof tiles used to cover drainage pipe {608}, again constructed out of reused roof tiles drained into silt trap {606}, and continued beyond this feature to drain into horn core pit {593}. The fills of the silt trap were (610) and (618). The drain and silt trap were built into construction cut [605].

Dating Information
-
- Pottery recovered from (609), the construction cut back fill is dated to 1550-1600AD. Pottery recovered from (610) the internal fill of silt trap {606} is dated to 1825-1840. The construction cut back fill is obviously material dug out from the immediate vicinity to consolidate the construction, so this feature is 19th century. No other datable material was recovered from the features within this Group, but given their stratigraphic position and function, they are seen as Post Medieval.
