Abstract The abstract describing the content of the publication or report |
An area of Marygate was excavated in late 1999. Features were uncovered which date from the late-twelfth century to the seventeenth century, based on pottery and leather finds. The earliest buildings were situated on the Marygate frontage, and were subsequently abandoned by about the fourteenth century, with new constructions erected in the backplot in the later medieval period. A number of pits were found during the excavations, some of which were used for depositing rubbish, whilst others were involved in the fish processing industry. Fish processing, including drying and probably salting, was an important activity on this site, particularly between the fourteenth and sixteenth centuries. There is also evidence of gardening practices in this area as demonstrated by the palaeobotanical findings. Includes special reports on | ||
