Abstract: |
The watching brief was undertaken during the excavation of new drain runs and manholes. Linear and enclosure ditches, possibly field and stock enclosures, of the Roman period occurred over the whole site. Remains of the Chapter House and slype of the Priory were found in the south-western half of the site, post-dating an earlier medieval rubbish pit. Within the Chapter House the partial remains of at least three human inhumations were recorded. To the north of the Chapter House was an early cemetery, of which the remains of three 12th century burials were recorded. In the north-western part of the site the cemetery appeared to have been partly cleared during the later 12th century. The remains of a right angle foundation were recorded in the area of the early cemetery [Au(abr)] |
