Description

Two test pits were opened up outside the north and south walls of the Town Cellars, both revealing probable post-medieval and modern deposits. Three test pits were dug at Scaplens Court in the internal courtyard and outside the rear wall of the house, which revealed a series of soil layers, some including oyster shell and animal bone, but no dating evidence. These are assumed to be primarily post-medieval in date.
