Abstract:
Archaeological features of considerable interest were uncovered in both trenches. In trench 1 a well constructed opus signum floor was sealed by several later clay levelling deposits and less well constructed floors. These were beneath a layer of thin sandstone flags which may have represented the collapse of the roof of a building. This evidence was interpreted as the construction and collapse of a well made building of late 2nd century date. Sandwiched beneath this material and later medieval build-up was a thin horizon of grey silty clay which may have represented a period of abandonment after the demise of the building in the late or post Roman period. Cut into the medieval build-up was a single pit of medieval or post-medieval date. In trench 2 a well constructed wall was uncovered at a slight angle to the alignment of Fetter Lane. It survived standing to a height of four courses and was neatly faced to either side and filled with a rubble core. The wall was dated to the 4th century. A post-medieval boundary wall was also identified. [Au(abr)]
