During a series of extensive rescue excavations, ahead of development in Dover’s town centre undertaken by Kent Archaeological Rescue Unit a building, the foundations of a large buttressed building were located, just to the north of the painted house. Three sections of the foundations were uncovered; the northernmost of these was traced for a distance of 11.8m, the central for 23.62m and the southern for 21.1m running east-west across the site. Both the northern and central of these three walls had integral buttresses, the function of which remains unclear. (location accurate to the nearest 2m based on available information)
