Abstract:
Building investigation and recording of the interior of Oxford City wall Bastion no. 4 and the late Victorian warehouse at Ship Street Oxford were undertaken due to redevelopment of the buildings as a conference venue and student accommodation by Jesus College. The work ran concurrently with below ground archaeological investigations within the warehouse which have been reported separately. The investigation revealed that the internal walls of the bastion were rebuilt in about the 16th century and no medieval fabric remained on the interior. More of the south east wall of the bastion had existed before the construction of the warehouse in 1882 but this had been reduced and rebuilt as part of the warehouse construction. The warehouse retained much original fabric but the windows and original stairs had been removed and the internal floors were removed as part of the development and the eastern part of the north wall was demolished as part of the development to extend the building with new build in that area. The work was carried out alongside archaeological test pits which showed part of the bastion wall that extended further south on the east side and showed deep shuttered footings at the east end of the warehouse where there are significantly deeper archaeological deposits which may be fills of a large north-south feature possibly an extramural defensive ditch.
