Abstract:		 The site lies to the north-east of the medieval market place, in an area which was at least partially built-up during the medieval period. The limited number of medieval features encountered consisted primarily of rubbish pits containing 13th-14th century pottery and other domestic waste. A very small quantity of residual Roman material was also identified. A stone-lined cess-pit of the 13th-14th century was identified in section approximately 45m to the rear of the High Street frontage. This distance indicates that it may have served a property on the Swan Lane frontage 26m to the south. Further evidence for medieval occupation in Swan Lane was provided by a number of medieval features which align with recorded 19th century property boundaries, suggesting that the plots were formed during the medieval period and ran back at least 26m from the frontage. The position of the site on two frontages has enabled a comparison to be made between the development of the two streets. Swan Lane plots appear to have been laid out before those on the High Street, which are as a result rather shorter. Evidence for the post-medieval period generally represented a low level of activity, rubbish disposal and horticultural features. The structural evidence all relates to late post-medieval and recent buildings.[AIP]
