Abstract: |
The site is located within the medieval core of Luton close to both the Church of St Mary, which is 12th century in origin, and the location of one of Luton's two medieval castles, that of Fulk de Breaute, which was built in the1220's. The initial stage of this programme comprised the excavation of two trial trenches within the boundaries of the site.The trenches contained two human burials and a considerable depth of post-medieval stratified archaeological deposits probably contained within a large pit or ditch. Further full excavation has revealed futher information. This is to be published in a future issue of the Bedfordshire Archaeology Journal. |
