Abstract:		 Excavations in advance of a house development on land between 57 and 59 College Street have identified a large medieval cellar that is dated from its flint-coursed walls to the Norman period. Its original depth was well over 2m and it was provided with a clay floor; a corridor appeared to descend into it from the west of the site. The foundations of a stone buttress are evidence of the stone building above the corridor. The cellar spanned c. 4.55m (15ft) and its width remains uncertain but was in excess of c.1.32m (12ft). The corridor was between 5ft to 6ft wide and ran westward towards Whiting Street for 17ft before continuing beyond the excavation. The cellar was set back from the street front and the remnants of a medieval yard surface survived made of stone and chalk. The north wall of the cellar was demolished in the 16th to 17th centuries and a wider cellar added made of flint and brick. This is likely to be contemporary with a series of gable ended buildings of (early?) 17th century date that were later converted into a workhouse by the local authority in 1748, which survived as footings in the excavation.
