What is recorded here

An excavation was carried out in 2000 which fronts onto Dominic Street on the W, with St Dominic's friary church forming the northern boundary of the site and the town wall forming the southern boundary. A two-storey stone building stands on the line of the former town wall on the SW side of the breach (O'Donnell 2002, 313). The remains of three burials were partially uncovered. They were recorded as found and left in situ, as they are probably part of a larger area of burials/interments. They were orientated NW-SE, and the southernmost burial had been cut by a later ditch which appears to be a fosse associated with the town wall.
