Abstract:
The results of a targeted test-pitting survey of the remains of the Walsingham Greyfriars' Chapter House. The Chapter House is part of an extensive complex of remains (Scheduled Monument No. NF201; 1003162) of a Franciscan Friary, which was founded in 1347 and dissolved in 1538. The surviving ruins include parts of the Great and Little Cloisters, the Guesthouse, the Chapter House and the precinct wall. Little of the church or Great Cloister remains but there are notable portions of the domestic buildings, especially the Little Cloister, Guest House and Kitchen. The Chapter House is a rectangular building with extant flint and mortar walls standing to a height of 3m which currently act as retaining walls for a large quantity of imported material. Therefore, in addition to natural erosion through weathering, the walls are under lateral pressure, with the eastern wall having partially collapsed. The excavation of five test-pits has provided information regarding both the character of the Chapter House footings and the infill deposits it retains. In addition, new data on the general method of its construction and information pertaining to the floor level within the Chapter House has been gained.
