Abstract: |
Three evaluation trenches were excavated on the site of 59, High Street, Hastings, East Sussex. This site is thought to have the remains of Hastings Town Wall running diagonally across it, which had been discovered by HAARG in 1984. In the course of these excavations the original HAARG trench was re-located, but the remains of the town wall were not seen. Post-Medieval activity is suggested by the recovery of sherds of pottery and clay tobacco pipe in deposits preserved below the existing concrete floor, whilst a deposit, possibly the fill of the town ditch or a pit, was also found. |
