Description

References made, first by Hansall in 1816, to the remains of possible Roman sewers similar to that recorded at Lamb Row beneath Little Abbey Court. The feature appeared to run on an east-west alignment across the court before turning in a south-easterly direction. A small entrance arch was recorded and the western end of the court.
