Description
Archaeological watching brief conducted at Main Street Chapel, Frodsham during excavation of foundations for a single storey extension ot the structure on its north-west and south-west sides. No archaeological features dating to before the 19th century were positively identified. The stratigraphy of the area suggests that land on which the chapel had been built had been used for cultivation over a long period, perhaps indicating that it either lay outside the medieval and early modern town, or represented a burgage plot that remained unused until the 19th century.
