Description

Three small trial trenches were excavated prior to proposed redevelopment of the land to the rear of 5 & 6 Eastgate. Evidence of medieval occupation of the site was identified in the form of a number of walls, a metalled surface and a limestone cist burial, very likely associated with the church of All Saints in the Bail. Earlier remains of a limestone wall of likely Roman date was also recorded. {1}{2}
