| Abstract: |
Twenty-four evaluation trenches were excavated around the former route of Mary-le-Port Street in the area bounded by High Street, Wine Street and Bridge Street. The fieldwork revealed that extensive cellaring had taken place across the site up to the 1930s. The utilisation of blitzed cellars as a car park in the 1950s, followed by the creation of a park in the early 1970s, resulted in made ground to depths of over 2m in places and yet medieval archaeology also survived less than half a metre below present ground level in other areas.
