Group Description

    • Context {702} was a brick floor associated with possible out building wall {701}. This was certainly an external structure/out building associated with the main building immediately to it's south,, a Post Med house fronting on to Prescot Street. Adjacent to this feature just to the east lay a series of small walls that formed an external structure associated with the buildings fronting onto Prescot Street. Context {705} was an internal (partition) wall, that divided the room in two. There were no visible access points to the northern division, so presumably an entrance or step at a higher level had once been present, but was not now discernible. There was a possible exit way in the southern part division. Floor {704} went under walls of the structure. Built into construction cut [2170], which was dug into the Post Medieval soils. Context {721} was a fairly modern square drain, that was overlain by {722}, a concrete render. The building of this drain involved knocking through part of wall {703} on its east side. It also partially dislodged/moved the eastern part of wall {711}. Both these brick outhouses were built into a construction cut for the two related but not connected brick outhouses.

    • The stratigraphic position of this feature and its construction from unfrogged brick show it to be a Stewart/Georgian feature that was built as an out house for the buildings fronting on to Prescot Street.
