Monument record TR 15 NE 1582 - Medieval structure, west of Iron Bar Lane & south of Burgate Street

Summary

A re-excavation of the site by Simon Pratt in 2000, found that this once thought to be Roman Public Building, was in fact medieval. Re-excavation showed the construction trench for the building actually cut late Roman deposits and that the walls apart for having re-used Roman building material within their fabric, they also had significant square cut Caen stone blocks.
