Description
-
- [589] is the cut of a possible soakaway. Although its fill (590) contained no sign of organic waste the base of [589] (which was not fully excavated) gave out putride smells, suggesting organic remains at a lower level, when it was probed. [589] poss. contained masonry which was removed before it was backfilled with (590). The removal of masonry would also help explain the undercut caused by gravel slippage. [589] is located in an area of high post medieval activity (it is cut by post-med. soakaway 584) and its backfill (590) contains post-med. finds.

- [589] is truncated by 584. [589] truncates clayish features that are possibly Roman.
