To the E of Roche castle (LH003-029001-), and divided from it by a wide rock-cut fosse, is a large plateau on which is thought to have been sited a medieval borough. Evidence of the borough is slight, but a weekly market and an annual eight-day fair had been established by 1284 and the borough is specifically mentioned in 1332 (Bradley and King 1985, 52-3). The remains of a boundary wall and tower at the NW corner, as well as a number of rectangular features within, can still be seen.
