Full Description
Archaeological observations were carried out during the construction of a car park at Bank Close, Christchurch, during 1980. These observations were subsequently published as a short note in DNHAS monograph 5 (1) and as a note in PDNHAS 109 (2).
The observations revealed a sandy layer to the NE of the line of medieval ditch A. This sandy layer may have been the associated bank. This was cut by an oven of mid-13th century date (1).
