Abstract:
Excavations by the Hertfordshire Archaeological Trust at 24 Friary Fields revealed stratified deposits, principally of Roman and medieval date. The earliest evidence comprised 2nd century pits, and some of this ephemeral activity may have had late 1st century origins. Fifteen graves belonging to the known, late Roman, cemetery were recorded and three could be dated to the latter half of the 4th century. Further I evidence of the cemetery boundary ditch was recorded. Boundary features and eight of the previously known cross-shaped pits associated with the Dominican Friary were recorded. The most likely interpretation of the pits is that they comprise part of formal gardens established in the late medieval period.
