Norfolk Archaeology 37 (1)

A brief account of the excavation of part of the Whitefriars complex is followed by detailed archaeological and historical accounts of the development of a site in the north of the city from late 13th to 18th century. The site at Oak Street consisted of six main tenements, clearly outside the limits of the Saxon town, ranging from single-roomed cottages up to the town house of an abbey. Floors and chimneys were inserted as population and living standards rose. Alan Carter's appendix examines evidence in two late medieval rural Norfolk buildings of the type of conversion likely to have been made during the 16th to 18th centuries of the excavated buildings.
