Full Description
1998: Two evaluation trenches just outside the precinct wall of Babwell Friary (BSE 014) uncovered a large ditch running parallel to, and south of, the Friary wall, filled in the Post Medieval period (S1). For more details see S3.
2000: Confirmed by monitoring plus other pits were found, but could not be dated. No further evidence was found of a possible Medieval posthole building identified during an earlier evaluation (SCCAS Report 98/20 - see BSE 014)(S2).
Evidence from monitoring the adjacent plot shows that the ditch extends away east of the site. The ditch probably relates to the Friary boundary, althought the date is not known (S2).
