Abstract:
Monitoring of footing trenches to the rear of �Goldings�, 67 High Street, Newmarket, identified several features associated with the 17th-18th century palace of Charles II. The foundations of a demolished wall were identified, corresponding to the position of a wall shown on an 18th century map as separating the palace garden from a courtyard. Associated chalk floor surfaces, perhaps originally part of the earlier buildings that were converted into the palace, were also located. An exceptionally large brick-lined shaft, at 4.5m in diameter and 11m deep, was identified and is believed to be the palace ice-house. This may be the only surviving example of one built for Charles II and, if it is 17th century in date, is certainly extremely important and one of the earliest surviving examples in Britain. The evidence suggested that all of these features were either demolished or buried during the 19th century, when it is known that the palace saw changes to its use and structure. This part of the palace was replaced by a yard and 19th century buildings, which were being destroyed by the development. Survey of these 19th century walls identified a carved limestone, tapered block, depicting the face of a �Green Man�. Its shape suggested it was a keystone from an arch, perhaps the one shown linking courtyard to garden, and may have been deliberately rescued during that walls demolition and replaced near to its original position in the new structure.
