Abstract:
An archaeological excavation was carried out on about 0.075ha of land at 68-70 Whitefriars Street, Coventry. The earliest features comprised two parallel lines of large quarry pits that had been filled in before the end of the 14th century. Later and shallower pits were cut into the quarry pit fills and included a stone-lined pit. These all contained quantities of domestic rubbish, including much animal bone and pottery of 14th-15th century date. At one end of the site there was the south-east corner of a substantial cellared building, with sandstone foundations, and to the south there was the north-western corner of a similar building foundation, which may have been contemporary. To the east a sandstone wall probably marked the boundary between two medieval burgage plots. The earlier remains had been truncated by the concrete foundations of buildings erected in the early 20th century.
