Full Description

April-May 2004: Monitoring of trenches for the underpinning of two compound walls and reducing of ground levels located two pits, a flint wall and a 16th century well, despite heavy modern truncation. Other features were associated with the presence and demolition of buildings that occupied the site in the 19th century. A scatter of post-medieval and modern, brick rubble filled features were also seen, probably associated with the demolition of the C19 buildings (S1).

No evidence of the chantry which once stood on part of the site was observed.
