Abstract: |
A watching brief was undertaken to monitor the excavation of a small trench to access and replace a blocked pipe in the passageway of the Byward Postern. Two sections of medieval masonry were noted during the investigation, both related to the inner face of the western wall of the postern. At the base of the inner door jamb an ashlar block of Kentish ragstone was recorded and abutting this to the north was a section of yellow medieval brickwork, three courses in height. These were sealed by deposits of modern backfill material. |
