Description

February and August to September 2019. The medieval and post-medieval activity was limited to two ditches and one large pit. The medieval ditch was likely a part of the outer reaches of the medieval town. The lack of activity in this area during these period is likely attributed to its location as part of the medieval and post-medieval field systems. <1> <2>
