The National Monuments Service's description
Pre-development excavations in 3-15 Hammond Lane/161-168 Church Street revealed a series of banks and ditches representing river defences. The primary fill of one of the ditches produced calibrated radiocarbon dates that range from AD 1010-1160. Pottery from both the upper layers of the bank and ditch dated from the 12th/13th century. Between the banks were several lines of stake-holes which formed rectangular boxes (Cryerhall, A, 2006, 136 in Excavations 2003).
