Abstract:
From November to December 2018 KDK a programme of Observation and Recording was undertaken at St Margaret's Church, King's Lynn, Norfolk in order to fulfil Condition 2 of the Faculty for development works to the church. The minster church of St Margaret is a Grade I listed building dating to the early Norman period, though little of this structure remains and the church has been reworked extensively in later centuries. Excavations to install a new disabled lift in the ground floor of the north tower and north aisle revealed the remains of a Norman compound pier belonging to the original northwest tower and likely dating to the early 12th century. It is in the same Romanesque style visible in the lower stages of the southwest tower. This feature was surrounded by later medieval and post-medieval deposits, indicating that the ground level was raised beneath the northwest tower after the church was largely rebuilt in the 15th century. A service trench to the north of the building revealed a foundation consisting primarily of stone, but also of brick and lime mortar, that may have been part of the 15th century north porch.
