- GRAVEL PIT? (19th Century - 1800 AD? to 1899 AD?)
Description
An evaluation was undertaken on the site of a former furniture factory situated between Church Road and Bank Road in the middle of Tylers Green. The work demonstrated that the area had once formed part of a large undated (but possibly 19th century or earlier) quarry pit for the extraction of sand and gravel. The backfill was a mixture of domestic and industrial waste, demolition rubble and clay dating to the first half of the 20th century. It is probably innacurate to talk in terms of one unified pit and it is possible that bits were open at different times (B1).
