After conducting the GPR survey, shovel tests were excavated around a visible surface feature on the eastern edge of the avenue of oaks in order to determine if it was an industrial component of the site. A series of 10 shovel tests were excavated to determine the extents and function of the structure. “Remnants of a brick floor were uncovered with 2-cm thick wooden planks resting on its surface. A light gray ashy material was mixed between the planks and brick with the entire area heavily inundated with creosote.�(Morby 2000:65). Excavations were not able to determine the extents of the foundation. Table 2. Artifact Assemblage Recovered from Shovel Tests at Feature 100 in 1993. ARTIFACT TYPES
