Abstract The abstract describing the content of the publication or report |
Excavation on land at The Elms, High Street, Brackley found activity dating from the 12th century to the second half of the 14th century. The first evidence of land use was several pits dating probably between AD1150-1250. These are presumed to lie within plots to the rear of domestic buildings fronting onto the High Street. In the mid to late 13th century the back plot was developed as a stone built "L"-shaped building, probably a detached bake-house and kitchen complex with possible storage rooms; a metalled track ran from the building towards the street. Later a malt oven was inserted into the south-west room. The malthouse/bakehouse was demolished probably in the second half of the Bath century and its walls were partly robbed and quarried for stone. The abandonment of the site seems to have mirrored the economic collapse of Brackley in this period and the resultant contraction in the town's size. Afterwards the site was never reoccupied | ||||
