Abstract: |
An archaeological watching brief was carried out during the installation of a dumb waiter in the Jericho Parlour and its undercroft. The project entailed the recording of three 16th century timber floor joist that were partially removed in order to accommodate the new dumb waiter. Observations were also made of the nature of the walls and general layout of the undercroft complex. The complex comprises a corridor of 14th century construction with most of the additional rooms being added by the construction of the Jericho Parlour in the 16th century, although the configuration of the complex continued to change throughout the centuries following.. |
