High Street, Lincoln site reveals Secret Medieval Road

Archaeologist working on our new retail development on Lincoln High Street have discovered a 14th century street.

The 9ft wide rubble track runs from the High Street towards Brayford Pool which during medieval times reached further in land. The dig has also revealed 26ft long wall foundations possibly from a medieval store or warehouse. Chris Clay, director of Allen Archaeology, based in Branston, believes both finds date from the 14th century.

Archaeologist have had a six week window of opportunity to record as much work as is possible before construction work begins on the 18th March.
