Short Description:
Tudor garden wall continuation running N-S through TR15
Issued to
Ben Swain | 29/10/2022
626

Interpretation

    • N-S continuation of Tudor garden wall visible in TR15. This segment of wall consists of very similar/identical characteristics to the other segments of wall excavated on the same alignment over the years (unbonded, Drystone wall consisting of one to two courses of roughly shaped blocks upon a stone foundation). It is almost certainly the same Tudor garden wall.
