Abstract: Reports the excavation of a section of the medieval town wall and the Riverside Tower south of the Close Gate, to identify the precise location and investigate the relationship between their construction and the development of the medieval waterfront on The Close. Specialist reports cover pottery (medieval--post-medieval), clay pipes, glass (vessel and window), coins, copper alloy artefacts, lead, iron objects, shale, amber, leather, bone objects, building materials, masons' marks, and graffiti. There are also reports on: `Plant remains' by J P Huntley (134--44); `Soils' by Robert S Shiel (144--5); and `Petrology' by Tim Pettigrew (145).
