Full Description

The site was situated within that of the former Holy Trinity Priory, subsequently developed into a Tudor Mansion and a 17th to 18th century park and garden. Archaeological monitoring recorded two walls; the former of which was parallel to an existing cemetery wall and may have been an earlier definition, potentially the original cemetery boundary; while the latter wall appears to relate to the former priory. Disarticulated human bone was also recovered and is likely derived from former areas of the adjacent St. Margaret’s Church burial ground.
