Monument record TR 15 NE 1516 - Roman City Wall, St. Radigund's Street
Summary
The city wall was observed in three places; just west of Abbot's Bridge waterlogged conditions prevented full excavation and only the Medieval chalk wall could be examined. At a point 11.58m east of the bridge only the lowest flint courses of the Roman wall survived. A Medieval square tower, seen on a map of 1789, was also revealed.
