Abstract The abstract describing the content of the publication or report |
Demolition of 19th cent married quarters allowed excavation of the area S of the inner curtain. A free-standing shallow rectangular gate-tower had been levelled before the curtain was built; a contemporary tower is probably still buried under the road nearby. Another gatehouse was built partly across the site of the first to give access to the new barbican, which had a surrounding ditch some 30ft across; its sliding bridge went out of use c AD 1250 when flanking walls were extended eastward to another wall-tower converted into an outer gate. A garderobe pit between gatehouse and curtain contained coins, pottery and ?Liège glass of c 1600. The development of the site is correlated with cartographic and documentary evidence. Further S, deep pits containing 12th cent pottery may have been trial ventilation shafts to the underground works, and a terrace within the SW curtain produced 12th cent pottery and ironwork. The jugs and cooking pots from the site are paralleled elsewhere in Kent and S England. Pottery runs up to early 18th cent. DFR | ||||||||||||||||
