Abstract:
The site lies to the rear of Dalton Square, a late eighteenth century planned development, which occupies former lands belonging to a Dominican Friary, founded in1260. Previous excavation at Numbers 3 and 7 Dalton Square, and on Sulyard Street to the north, have uncovered remains of the friary. The site is therefore located in an area of some archaeological potential. The programme of works involved a desk-based assessment and a building investigation of the extant nineteenth century extension to the main Georgian building, and two phases of evaluation. The first phase of the evaluation was carried out to the rear of the building in order to assess the presence or absence of archaeological remains; the second phase of evaluation works will be undertaken on demolition of the extension. The Dominican Friary, which was founded in 1260, occupied the site of Dalton Square up until the eighteenth century. Structural remains and burials relating to the friary church have been discovered during groundworks and small-scale excavations from the eighteenth century to the present, particularly focussing on the north-eastern corner of Dalton Square and Sulyard Street. The Friary was in existence until the Dissolution in the sixteenth century; the buildings were sold off and served as private dwellings through the seventeenth and eighteenth centuries, being altered and removed. The excavation results appear to indicate the survival of a probable element of the friary, in the form of a substantial wall, which may relate to the claustral wall for the friary complex.
