Subgroup Narrative Text
-
- Post Medieval construction cut [1973] was dug into (2001), the mixed back fill of quarry pit [2002]. The size of [2002] indicates that it was clearly a quarry pit, while the mixed fill (2001), is seen as a mix of refuse. The fill held pot, bone, CBM, oyster shell and charcoal. This is seen as a series of domestic dumps, lain down to back fill the quarry pit and reclaim the land affected by its excavation.
