Abstract:
Outlines and compares the results of three excavations in the Saxon port of Lundenwic. At 8--18 Charing Cross Road, various pits were identified, one of which was interpreted as a well. At Old Brewer's Yard, just west of Neal Street, various pits and a compact gravel surface were uncovered. At Kingsway Hall, 66--68 Great Queen Street, stakeholes forming a fenced (?animal) enclosure, a well and four pits from the seventh or eighth century were revealed. During the mid-eighth century several pits, some of which cut by stakeholes, encroached upon the former enclosure area, suggesting that a new enclosure had been re-established. Other periods of activity were identified, including: a Mesolithic or Neolithic scraper; flint and pottery sherds from between the MBA and MIA; an isolated Roman ditch; and a medieval ditch labelled as a `common sewer' on a sixteenth-century map.
