Full Description
PRN 70369
An archaeological watching brief was conducted during the excavation of geotechnical pits on land at the former Anchor Street Works, Anchor Street, Lincoln. The watching brief required the monitoring of 24 machine-excavated geotechnical trial pits (nominally 2m long and 0.60m wide). In Trial Pit 23, a deposit of mid-brown sand with occasional charcoal flecks, limestone inclusions and animal bone was revealed, from which two sherds 13th century pottery were retrieved. Although not important in themselves, the finds (in conjunction with others recovered during this and previous investigations) indicate Medieval activity on or immediately adjacent to the site. {1}{2}
