Abstract:
An area approximately 50m. south of the site of the medieval East Gate of Lewes (Fig. 1a) has been scheduled for redevelopment. Houghton's study of the property boundaries, and historic maps and drawings in relation to the standing buildings in this area, have led to the suggestion that the limit in building in the medieval period was west of the present line of Eastgate Street and Friar's Walk. To test this hypothesis, the Sussex Archaeological Field Unit carried out an excavation within the redevelopment area during June, 1976. It was planned to excavate a trench 30m. long and 3m. wide parallel to the line of the High Street. The only area of the site where this was possible proved to have a cellar occupying the eastern 9m. (Fig. 1b, trench A), and consequently an extra trench (Fig. 1b, trench B) was excavated 1.75m. north of the cellar, to complete the section. Standing buildings and buried services also complicated the layout of this excavation.
