Abstract:		 The excavation revealed four distinct phases of archaeological activity at the site. Phase 1 was represented by the construction of two burgage plot boundaries in the late 12th or 13th century, associated features included a group of clay extraction pits and two rubbish pits. The site also appeared to have been cleared of vegetation at this stage and a number of features with natural origins were recorded. No structures were recorded from this phase although there is some evidence to suggest that they may have existed at the street front which was not excavated. The second phase of activity spanned the period from 1400-1700 and saw clay extraction continue, structural activity is also suggested by a substantial post hole, and the presence of roofing slate, mortar, daub, burnt limestone, along with the well recorded in the evaluation phase. Evidence for lead and iron working, the processing of cereals, wool and leather working were found in the backfills of earlier extraction pits. Phase 3 saw concerted efforts at ground consolidation in preparation for new buildings further back from the street front. Two structures were excavated; one which was a metal workshop that represented cottage industry at the site, evidence for horn working, butchery and possibly tanning was also recovered from features of this date. The last phase was represented by the foundations of 19th century buildings that replaced earlier structures as the plots became more developed.
