Full Description
{1} A small single-flued late medieval kiln in the south east corner of the site was fully excavated. A second medieval kiln in the south west corner of the site was identified and the section within the development site largely excavated, together with a large pit which had partly destroyed the kiln.
A few metres north east of the kiln a dump of wasters was demolished. A substantial sample was collected and this was consistently of fourteenth century character.
