Excavation in advance of demolition was carried out between October and December 1986 in the backlands of 55 High Street. Various features, including medieval gullies, stakeholes and postholes were cut into natural sand deposits. Overlying this were thick deposits of garden soil which produced over 600 sherds of medieval pottery.
