Abstract: |
The site lay in an important area of the town, between the river and the main route into the city. Finds were recorded nearby from the Roman, Saxon and medieval periods. A Carmelite priory was founded in 1290 on the opposite side of old Milne Street from the St. Catherine's site, itself founded in 1475. Comparison with nearby borehole records suggested that, despite the reduction in the basement, the height of surrounding natural was such that it was quite possible that archaeology could have survived.
