July 2013. Watching Brief.
Monitoring of groundworks associated with construction of residential dwelling.
Beamslots and postholes defining the south-west corner of a medieval timber structure were revealed. A small assemblage of finds was recovered from these features and included fragments of medieval brick, roof tile and wall plaster, presumably from high status buildings within the precinct of the Augustinian Friary (NHER 10562). The only evidence for later activity on the site was a small number of late post-medieval pits and postholes.
