Abstract:		 The medieval deposits at Little Lane span the twelfth to sixteenth centuries. The excavated area lies behind the street frontage. The features encountered are principally pits and wells. The animal bones appear to derive in the main from domestic food waste. The presence however of sawn antler offcuts of red, roe and fallow deer in the fifteenth-sixteenth century phases indicates some craft working in the vicinity. The quantity of bones and range of species represented increases in the later phases, which may be associated with the occupation of the Lord's Place, a Tudor mansion. Of particular interest are two metapodials and a first phalanx from a dwarf or Ancon sheep from a sixteenth century context. This appears to be an early record of this mutation. See also 92/404.
