Abstract: |
Groundworks observation and the excavation of two small areas (5m by 3m) to the rear of a site covering three properties fronting the medieval market place was undertaken. The eastern area contained early 11th-14th century cess and rubbish pits and a layer containing a large quantity of 13th/14th century pottery which must have derived from a kiln nearby. The western area revealed an early-mid 11th century beam slot, overlaid by a series of yard or, more probably, street surfaces, possibly belonging to the precursor of Market Street, dating to the 11th-14th centuries. These were cut by post holes of later medieval timber buildings. Other finds included early post-medieval pits and possible structural features inside the standing building on the Market Place frontage. There were also two late medieval or post-medieval wells and post-medieval walls recognisable on the earliest (late 18th century) plans of the property. [Au(abr)] |
