What is recorded here

Remains of the archbishop's palace were exposed during pre-development excavation at the site of the former Drogheda Grammar School in 1998 (Excavation Licence No. 98E0544). Built by Primate Christopher Hampton in 1613. Little of the residence survived save the external W wall and part of its bricked floor. This floor sealed the remains of earlier medieval structures (LH024-041076-). Found in association with a number of other medieval buildings (LH024-041068-, LH024-041069-, LH024-041072- and LH024-041077-), two medieval corn-drying kilns (LH024-041070- and LH024-041074-) and a lime kiln (LH024-041073-).
