468-480 Portswood Road, Southampton (SOU1643). Archaeological Evaluation (OASIS ID: thamesva1-169771)

An evaluation was carried out prior to re-development of the site for residential flats and a small retail unit. Much late post medieval made ground and several foundations were revealed. Colluvial and/or alluvial deposits found probably relate to Furzewell's Stream which was recorded on a 1658 map. Finds included pottery, animal bone, ceramic building material and stone. The only finds retained were a copper alloy Islamic jetton and a pipe clay quill holder.
