Archaeology, Week 5

Archaeology, Week 5

The team have excavated two cess pits on the site, which were built at the rear of Alexander Orr’s house. They were filled with domestic waste, capped and had plumbing installed in the late 19th to early 20th century.

Find out how they knew where to dig and what they discovered in the Week 5 diary.
