| Abstract: | substantial middens were partly excavated at three sites where they could be seen to pre-date the town, and to have provided a foundation for the thirteenth-century wool house. An estimate is given of the amount of oyster meat represented and methods for dating the material are discussed. The size of the middens and lack of other food remains incorporated in them might suggest commercial harvesting | |||
