Abstract: |
Trent and Peak archaeology was contracted by Framework Housing Association to carry out an archaeological evaluation, mitigation and watching brief on the corner of Friars Lane and St Rumbold Street (1-3 Friars Lane) in the centre of Lincoln. The intention of the investigations was to ascertain the depths, character and levels of preservation of archaeological remains, features and deposits ahead of potential disruption from the ensuing development. The remains of probable medieval wall foundations were revealed, sealed by layers of made-ground and midden material. An assemblage of medieval and early post-medieval ceramics was recovered from these layers, supporting the theory that this part of Lincoln had been abandoned during the 15th century. This abandonment appears to have continued until the 19th century, when remains of late 19th century buildings and activity were noted, cutting into the made-ground layers. |
