| Abstract: |
Finds recovered from spoil when the bishop's gardener dug an ornamental fish-pond included 11.9kg of pottery of varying dates and a quantity of building materials, animal bone and oyster shell. The Roman pottery gave a date-range of c. AD 2nd-4th century and the building materials indicated the presence of a significant masonry building somewhere in the vicinity. The scarcity of medieval finds was to be expected in a religious area with relatively very low population density and the post-medieval finds were as one might find in the garden of any prosperous house of the period.
