In 1300 a murage grant was given for a period of 10 years and in 1310 a further grant was given for a period of 3 years (Thomas 1992, 194). Based on the probable survival of the medieval town pattern on the modern town, it is suggested that the town consisted of an area of c. 15 hectares, roughly rectangular in shape, incorporating the church (TS067-004003-) and graveyard (TS067-004008-) in its NW angle and the castle (TS067-004002-) in the SE angle, with the River Ara forming the southern boundary (Thomas 1992, 194-5). There is no visible trace of an enclosing wall, bank or fosse at ground level.
