Abstract:
A trial trench evaluation and subsequent excavation revealed a sequence of features of Late-Saxon and medieval date, comprising pits, ditches and post holes. This was taken to suggest that the area was used for casual disposal and back-yard occupation from at least the tenth to the fourteenth century. The excavation is argued to generally confirm the early tenth century foundation of Hertford and its successful initial growth. The river margin was subsequently abandoned during a period of urban contraction, but tentative reoccupation can be ascribed to the seventeenth century, followed by eventual redevelopment and reclamation from the eighteenth century.
