Description
The contractors’ excavation of two narrow and relatively shallow (max.0.75m deep) service trenches around the south and west sides of the church, and internal works to the floor of the Lady Chapel, were subject to archaeological monitoring. The medieval church and churchyard are situated within the Second Walled Enclosure of the Roman town.
NRHE data transfer:
Monitoring of groundworks within the Lady Chapel and across the churchyard recorded a possible Roman wall as well as medieval structural details.
