Observation during the initial site stripping resulted in noting the presence of frequent fragments of moulded glass dating to the later nineteenth century and later. One small shoulder fragment of a black glass cylinder bottle was also noted. A small assemblage of pottery was collected during initial site preparation. This was dominated by white glazed earthenware and Cornish ware. Three earlier sherds were also noted including a body sherd of Midland black glazed red earthenware; a shoulder of Nottingham/South Derbyshire brown salt glazed stoneware and a base sherd of a salt glazed white ware. The white ware can be dated to c. 1720-80 whilst the others, although potentially earlier, were of forms more typical of the late C18th-early C19th. The group is fragmentary and typical of the background material to be expected in a former garden. (1)
