Abstract:
As part of a pre-planning assessment of land adjacent to Boroughgate in Appleby an archaeological evaluaton was carried out. The site is at the south end of the street, immediately opposite the gates of the castle. Boroughgate probably developed as a response to the granting of a borough charter in 1179, which led to an expansion of the town within a loop of the river between the castle and church. Early maps of the site indicate that it comprised two burgage plots and had been occupied by buildings on the east side in 1754 but during the 19th century it was largely empty. The evaluation revealed a number of well-preserved features of medieval and post-medieval date including areas of cobbling with an associated stone-lined drain, pits and linear features, in some cases sealed beneath a thick layer of garden soil. A substantial quantity of finds was recovered, including a large amount of high-quality medieval pottery and pieces of floor tile, indicating that high status building(s) had stood nearby and there was a high potential for finding further remains.
