Abstract:
The excavations revealed dam construction layers dating to the 12th/early 13th century, the traditional date for a raising of the original dam. These layers appeared to predate the adjacent standing walls of the Tiltyard and Gallery Tower and were topped by a rubble surface which may have formed a strand for boats used on the Mere. The surface was overlaid by later medieval and post-medieval surfaces. No trace was found of the steps showing on Dugdale's c.1650 plan which may have led down to the strand. [Au(abr)]
