Abstract:
Excavation revealed features dating from the 12th century to the late 20th century. Medieval remains included fragments of enclosure ditches and a post built structure facing onto what is now Newmarket Road. The late Medieval period saw a large building with a hearth and a possible latrine within it. After Dissolution, the western half of the plot was part of the former Barnwell Priory Estate with possibly a farm house directly to the west of the excavation area. Two clunch walled features found in this part of the plot comprised a detached latrine complex which went out of use by the early 17th century, and a well backfilled in the later 18th century. The eastern half was within part of a plot owned by Benet College. Here, a substantial quarry pit had been backfilled with artefacts and demolition rubble dating to the early 1600s. Remains of five early 19th century buildings were uncovered, two of which had dual use; The Jolly Butchers which was both a butchers and a pub, and the other being both a grocers and a baker. Three domestic buildings were also found, with one surviving in good condition with brick floors, an internal chimney and an outside brick-paved courtyard. Three pits dating to the 1820's, probably in the courtyard of the Jolly Butchers, contained notable assemblages, especially a regionally important clay pipe collection. The buildings seemed to survive til 1969 when all were demolished for the widening of Newmarket Road.
