Abstract:
In May 2015 Archaeological Solutions Ltd (AS) carried out an archaeological excavation at the Globe Bowls Club, St John's Walk, Blackfriars Road, King's Lynn, Norfolk. The excavation was undertaken in compliance with a planning condition attached to planning permission for the construction of a new outbuilding. The site lies within an area of considerable archaeological significance on the line of the medieval King's Lynn town defences at St James' End. Originally utilising an old sea bank, stone walls were added to the defences during the 13th and 15th centuries AD, with further modifications during the English Civil War. The extant walls within the town are designated Scheduled Ancient Monuments, including the area immediately south of the bowls club. The defences in this area are visible as standing masonry and a pronounced earthwork through the line of The Walks, and following the course of the canalised Gaywood River (the moat serving the town). In the event, the excavation encountered part of the town wall bank and evidence for the original presence of the medieval stone wall (demolished in the early 19th century).
