Description
Evaluation trial trenching by Albion Archaeology in March 2011 revealed the remains of three pits datable to the post-medieval and modern periods. The largest post-medieval pit contained peg-tile, ceramic building material, animal bone and an abraded sherd of possible Roman pottery. The function of these pits is unclear, however, they may be related to the use of the land as the gardens or back-plots of houses and shops on West Street as shown on the 1843 Great Marlow Tithe map and the 1st edition Ordnance Survey map of 1876 (B1).
