Ipswich UAD child record record IPS 1335 - Dominican Friary Cloister

The north cloister was 26m north-south by 19.2m east-west with evidence for roofed walkways against the south and east ranges, leaving a garth 23.5m by 15m.
The East and North Walks
A robbing trench, running for 9.5m south of the nave and two wall fragments, parallel to the east range, defined a roofed walk at least 3.8m wide. As the wall line crosses graves 1460 and 1493 at the north end, the covered way was clearly not an original feature and presumably replaced a paved walk on the east and north sides of the garth. A single line of thirteen graves stretched south for 8.6m from the entrance to the tower along the east cloister walk. A further ten graves lay in a 2m corridor on the south side of the nave presumably buried under an un-roofed but paved north walkway. After a break, where the parlour joins the nave, a further three graves were found just south of the nave, to the west of the parlour.
The South Walk
A 5m length of wall and a linear band of mortar, parallel to and north of the north wall of the south range, indicated a south cloister walk, 2.1m wide. Two small areas of mortar floor base lay south of wall. There were nine graves, clustered in two groups: five in the eastern group and four in the western group. All were adult males (Mays 1991), predominantly laid out with their hands folded across their chest or stomach, (S1).
