Abstract: |
An archaeological evaluation was carried out in September and October 2012 by Pre-Construct Archaeology, Ltd in Poets' Corner Yard at Westminster Abbey. The work entailed the hand excavation of three trenches to evaluate the archaeological potential of the yard. Footings for the east wall of the south transept and the polygonal chapel of St. Edmund were uncovered as were three graves (two of which had been heavily truncated) dating to the 11th century. |
