Full Description
A sequence of Medieval occupation-layers and floors was found but no walls, a hearth was also found and seems to have been used for iron-working. A circular oven was also found. In the 13th century a building with a shallow cellar was constructed at the west end of the trench, part of the cellar is all that survives. The building went out of use in the early 14th century and the cellar was filled in with rubble. Several more floors found appear to indicate that a subsequent building was erected on the site.
