Subgroup Narrative Text
-
- Stratigraphically under Post Medieval construction cut [2172] was (1351), the upper fill of pit [1353]. This later fill produced Roman pottery, a lot of oyster shells and charcoal flecks, indicating that this was a refuse pit. It is very similar to lower fill (1358), but was noted to contrast with primary fill (1352), that was comparatively sterile. This lower fill in [1353] was seen as edge collapse, indicating that the pit had been open for sometime before being back filled by the later refuse deposits. Cut [1353] was cut into layer (1403).
