Abstract: |
The excavation revealed a complex history of the City of London's defences, including a ditch associated with Cripplegate fort, an early city boundary ditch, the Roman city wall with a possible internal turret and associated ditches, the Saxon defences, the medieval bastion and several phases of medieval and post-medieval city ditch. The removal of a modern wall revealed a heavily truncated fragment of the city wall with a similarly constructed wall at right angles and internal to it. To the west of this wall was a complex sequence of stratigraphy which was recorded in section. [Au(adp)] |
