Walls, S., 2012, Archaeological Evaluation on Land, Cockles Rise, Crediton (Report - Evaluation). SDV348802.

An archaeological evaluation was undertaken prior to the development of waste land to the rear of the gardens of 18-21 Dean Street, Crediton, Devon. The proposed development lies in the backplots of the listed buildings aligned on Dean Street. Of these buildings, numbers 19-21 were built in the 17th century or possibly earlier and the development of the backplot had the potential to expose archaeological deposits and features associated with late-medieval and early post-medieval development of Crediton. Sherds of pottery were recovered ranging in date from the 16th-19th century. Other finds include animal bones, 19th century glass vessel pan tile fragments and one fragment of clinker/slag.
