Full Description
2010: The evaluation and monitoring at 71-72 Churchgate Street produced evidence of medieval occupation with a limited number of pits and a large oven, possibly a malting kiln. Examination of the remains of an east-west flint and brick wall that was demolished as part of the development indicated that it was built after the mid-late 17th century and was not a longstanding property boundary stretching back from Guildhall Street. It was also established that there were no medieval soil levels surviving but that there was a large accumulation of soil after the 17th century (S1).
