Full Description

{1} John Speed's map of 1610 shows buildings, probably cottages, flanking the westen end and the southern side of Green Street. The rear wall of a building and a stone-lined well recovered at the eastern end of trench one may relate to either these cottages or successors to them. They indicate a first stage of domestic encroachment onto the defences.
