Description
Later medieval deposits were excavated over a wide area of the site behind limited modern cellaring on the street front. Three properties on Swinegate were identified and all contained evidence of timber-framed buildings with pits to the rear. A number of extensive dumps containing large quantities of mould and crucible fragments indicate extensive metalworking nearby in medieval times.
