Full Description
Archaeological monitoring revealed extant archaeological features and deposits of Late medieval date, possibly forming a small outdoor smithy belonging to a larger house nearby. The Street appears unlikely to have moved much since the medieval period, with listed buildings of 16th century origin fronting onto the street in both directions, and it is suggested that the possible smithy belonged to a dwelling sited where Manor House/Manor Lodge now stand (S1).
