Situated on a hillock c. 250m NW of the early medieval church of Nobber (ME005-071001-) and the N end of the village, overlooking the canalised River Dee c. 100m to the NW and its new course c. 250m to the SW. Hugh de Lacy granted Gaileanga Mór, the barony of Morgallion, to Gilbert de Angelo before 1186, and Gilbert made Nobber the caput or centre of his manor close to an existing church. After Gilbert was outlawed in 1196 Morgallion reverted to Walter de Lacy who granted it to his half-brother Hugh. This Hugh held John de Courcy, the Earl of Ulster, captive at Nobber in 1201 (Orpen 1911-20, 2, 189-90), and Hugh managed to retain it from 1210 until his death in 1243. In 1227 the burgesses of Nobber received four carucates (townlands) in return for building a causeway between the motte and the town. Hugh left the manor of Nobber to his daughter Matilda who was marred to David FitzWilliam, one of the FitzGerald family and the baron of Nass. The FitzGeralds held Nobber into the fourteenth century, when it passed by marriage through the le Botiller and de Londres families until in 1386 it passed to Christopher Preston, the second Lord Gormanston, and it remained with the Preston family into the nineteenth century. In the Civil Survey (1654) Lord Gormanston held Nobber and its hamlet, Kilbryde and Sallersook (Simington 1940. 333). (Bradley and King 1985, 118; Mount 2008) The motte is a grass-covered earthen mound with a concave top (diam. of top 13m NNW-SSE; D of top 1-1.3m; diam. of base 40m NNW-SSE; H 7.8m at S and 7.8m at N). There are trees on the sides but there is no clear evidence of a fosse, except at SE where a broad shallow fosse (Wth of top c. 15m; Wth of base 8m; D 0.3m) separates it from a bailey ESE-S. The bailey consists of a raised rectangular and grass-covered area (dims of top 33m ENE-WSW; 18m NNW-SSE) defined by a scarp (max. dims at SW: Wth 13m; H 4.5m) extending SE from the motte. The bailey is bisected by a NNE-SSW field bank and drain and does not survive E of this in a farmyard. Archaeological testing (02E1657) by J. Roynane under the road c. 20m NW-NE at the nearest point produced evidence of a cobbled surface from on earlier iteration of the road but no material relating to the motte (excavations.ie 2006:1615). Archaeological testing (03E0995) c. 75m NW of the motte recovered a two-colour medieval tile and evidence of a metalled surface (Noonan 2006). Archaeological testing (24E0965) by M. McCormick c. 300m to the NW in Muff townland produced no archaeological material (excavations.ie 2024:247). The above description is derived from the published 'Archaeological Inventory of County Meath' (Dublin: Stationery Office, 1987). In certain instances the entries have been revised and updated in the light of recent research. Compiled by: Michael Moore Date of revision: 3 June 2016 Amended: 10 October 2025 This monument is subject to a preservation order made under the National Monuments Acts 1930 to 2014 (PO no. 1/1978). - ME005-071: Historic town, https://heritagedata.maps.arcgis.com/apps/webappviewer/index.html?id=0c9eb9575b544081b0d296436d8f60f8&query=18a4b61b268-layer-9%2CSMRS%2CME005-071----. Situated on a slight NE-SW spur with the ground falling away slightly to the NW and SE and to the SW where a diverted channel of the River Dee runs NNW-SSE just to the E of Moynagh Lough and re-connects with the original channel c. 1km to the SE of Nobber. This channel had been established by 1698 and is depicted on a Gormanston map (21 F 145) in NLI. The NW-SE cutting for the Kingscourt railway line was excavated through the tip of the spur, isolating it from the medieval church and the present village. If there was not already an existing settlement around the early church (ME005-071001-) a borough was probably established by Gilbert d’Angulo who also built the motte (ME005-070----), which is N of the church on its own hill. The d’Angellos fell out of favour with Prince John, who had been restored as Lord of Ireland in 1196, and the manor of Nobber returned to the younger Hugh de Lacy c. 1200. The borough is first mentioned in 1227 when the burgesses were granted four carucatees (townlands) and an annual fair of 14 days in November. Mills are mentioned in 1211-12, while burgage plots and a charter were referred to in 1290. Besides the annual fair a weekly market had also been established by 1467. The town was ruled by a Provost and had its own court and stocks. On the death of Hugh de Lacy in 1243 the manor of Nobber passed by marriage to the Fitzgerald family who held it into the fourteenth century when it passed by marriage through the le Botiller and de Londres families until in 1386 it came to Christopher Preston, the second Lord Gormanston, and it remained with the Preston family into the nineteenth century. (Bradley and King 1985, 118-22; Mount 2008) Nobber was at the edge of the Pale and came under increased pressure in the fifteenth and sixteenth centuries. In 1400 there are references to vacant plots, and the town was burned by Irish raiders in 1425 and 1434. Eighty hostages were taken in the latter incident and two years later Christopher Preston received permission to fortify the town with ditches. A second grant to fortify was issued in the sixteenth century, but it is unlikely that either was put into effect. A Mansion House, two bridges – Nobber Bridge and Lady’s Bridge on the River Dee c. 800m to the SE, a mill and three eel-wears are recorded in the Civil Survey (1654) (Simington 1940, 333). (Bradley and King 1985, 117-122; Seever 2011, 80-5) The town was laid out around the wide NW-SE Main Street (Dargan 1998, 35-7), although it was wider in the seventeenth century on the SW side according to a Gormanston map in NLI (21 F 145) dated 1698. The street probably accommodated the medieval market and fair which were clearly important, while the rectangular ‘Fair Green’ depicted on the 1836 edition of the OS 6-inch map is N of the town and is considered to be post-medieval (ibid. 37). A ‘Market Cross’ is indicated on the OS maps at the lane leading from Main St. to the church. Apart from some archaeological testing (02E0599; 02E1243; 02E1657; 04E0989; 05E0271) for single houses, or services in the Main Street (Meehan 2004a, b, c) and in relation to new houses close to the motte (Noonan 2006) there was little excavation or evidence of medieval deposits or features before Seaver (2010, 2011) recovered extensive evidence of occupation dating from the later twelfth century (ME005-071022-). Compiled by: Michael Moore Date of upload: 5 September 2018 Amended: 17 February 2021 - ME005-071001: Church, https://heritagedata.maps.arcgis.com/apps/webappviewer/index.html?id=0c9eb9575b544081b0d296436d8f60f8&query=18a4b61b268-layer-9%2CSMRS%2CME005-071001-. Situated on a rise overlooking a shallow basin to the W. The parish church of Nobber was within a subcircular graveyard (dims c. 60m E-W; c. 55m N-S) defined by scarps (H c. 1m) that were retained by a low masonry wall (H c. 0.5m), which is still visible at S. This graveyard was extended on all sides (dims c. 75m E-W; c. 50m N-S) except the N after 1836 and it is now defined by masonry walls (H c. 2m). The name ‘Nobber’ is thought to derive from ‘an obair’ meaning the work, probably referring to the Anglo-Norman motte (ME005-070----), c. 300m to the NW, although it might derive from ‘an abar’ meaning the marsh (de hÓir 1965, 98). In any case discovering a pre Anglo-Norman history of what was an early ecclesiastical site is almost impossible (King 2007, 59-62). During the High Middle Ages the location became the parish church of Nobber, which was a prosperous borough, but by the 17th century it was in decline. According to Dopping’s Visitation (1682-5) the church was dedicated to St. John the Baptist, it had been in ruins since 1641 and was not enclosed (Ellison 1973, 4). The present Church of Ireland church, now closed, was built in 1771 (Lewis 1837, 1, 443), re-cycling stones from older structures, including a stone head on the S wall. Three medieval graveslabs (King 1987, 297-99) and an early cross-base had always been in the graveyard or its vicinity (Dargan 1998, 30-2). The effigial tomb-cover of Gerald Cruise and Margaret Plunkett, dated 1619, is set upright on the path into the church. Two others dating from c. 1690-1700, including that of Murtagh, the priest, are nearby in the graveyard. A font, described as a bowl-shaped vessel (ext. diam. 0.42m; int. diam. 0.34m; D 0.18m) that narrowed to the base (diam. 0.26m) and has two lug handles (Roe 1968, 125) was moved c. 1990 to St. Ernon’s Church of Ireland church at Kingscourt, Co. Cavan (CV035-063----) (King 2007, 64), but this is 18th or 19th century in date. The medieval church is represented by the ivy-covered W wall (L 6m) and part of the N wall (L 4.2m) of a belfry tower that was vaulted over the ground floor. The tower has four storeys with small lights on the lower floors and two large pointed openings at the third storey for the belfry stage. It is thought to be 15th century in date and was probably an addition to the medieval church, of which there is no trace. However, a clean-up of the graveyard in 2006 brought many early features to light, which are almost all worked pieces of sandstone (King 2005) and all are still in the graveyard, except one of the high crosses and the cross-slab. The cross-base is conical (diam. of base 0.84m; diam. of top 0.42m; H 0.6m) with a rectangular mortice (dims 0.26m x0.18m). Two bands of interlace or fret-pattern are separated by two rib-mouldings (King 2005, 21). The solid ringed head of a small high cross (H 0.45m; Wth c. 0.3m) is missing the upper shaft and one arm but has an interlace pattern surrounding a small holed boss at the centre on one face. The upper shaft has roll-moulding framing an interlace pattern with a row of pellets along the top. The other face has a boss at the centre surrounded by eight D-shapes inside the ring with bosses at the cardinal points. The upper shaft has a pattern of knot interlace between roll-mouldings. Part of the shaft (dims 0.26m x 0.14m; H 0.76m) of another cross may have been connected with the cross-base. Its angle moulding is distinctive, and there is a small interlace knot with a fragment of figure sculpture on one face. A cross-slab (L 0.99m x 0.66m; T 0.13m) is decorated on one face with a ringed cross in relief that occupies almost the whole stone, with two winged figures on either side of the stem that appeared to be winged but are cloaked and one has a staff or crozier (King 2005, 22-4; 2007, 43-55). Seven smaller crosses in the graveyard that are acting as grave-markers could also be early because of the pecking technique to decorate them, but they need not all be very early. The form is of latin crosses (Wth 0.27-40) and the height varies (H 0.25-0.9m) depending on how deeply buried they are. All have incised crosses of one or more lines on their surfaces; one has a circular pecked ring and another has a square one. A fragment of a churchyard cross has recently been identified amongst the architectural fragments. (King 2007, 52-6) The above description is derived from the published 'Archaeological Inventory of County Meath' (Dublin: Stationery Office, 1987).

This cross-base has been described by King (2005, 21) as follows: ‘This truncated cone-shaped base has not been previously published, although it was mentioned by Helen Roe in The high crosses of Kells (Dublin, 1975). It is located immediately on the left inside the gate to the graveyard. The visible height is 60cm; the diameter is 84cm at the base and 42cm at the top. The mortice is filled with concrete but approximate measurements are 26cm by 18cm. Two bands of an interlaced pattern framed by one wide and one narrow rib moulding can be seen toward the upper end of the stone. Unfortunately the decoration on over half of the surface of the base is almost entirely degraded, as the stone was used as a gate-stop at the entrance of the lane to the graveyard in the early part of the twentieth century. The base compares very closely with that of the North cross at Kells in shape, scale and ornamentation, and was almost certainly carved by the same craftsman. A date in the tenth/eleventh century is suggested.’ Compiled by: Paul Walsh Date of upload: 2 September 2013 - ME005-071003: Cross, https://heritagedata.maps.arcgis.com/apps/webappviewer/index.html?id=0c9eb9575b544081b0d296436d8f60f8&query=18a4b61b268-layer-9%2CSMRS%2CME005-071003-.

This slab, in ten fragments, to the memory of Gerald Cruise is on the left side of the path between the old graveyard in Nobber and the eighteenth century church. It is in an upright position above the vault of the medieval church although according to Dopping (Ellison 1973, 4) it was in the choir of the church in 1693. It depicts a knight in full armour with his sword shown separately at his side. Two shields on either side of his head show the arms of Plunket and Cruise. There is a marginal inscription in relief in Roman capitals: HERE LIETH THE BODY / OF GERALD CRVS OF THE BRITTAS AND MARGARET PLVNKE / T HIS WIF WHICH GERRALD / DID BVILD THIS MONVMENT AND IS HEYRE LINEALLY DECE / NDED FROM SR MAURICE CR / VYS WHOE DYED THE FYRST YEARE OF KYNG HENRY / THE THYRD IN ANNO / DOMINI 1216 TO WHOSE SOVLES DOD GRANT HIS / MERCY AMEN 1619+. Three stones lying on top of the vault record an early repair of the monument or perhaps its erection in its present position: REPAIRED IN THE 21YR OF THE REIGN OF GEORGE 3RD 1781.

Situated on a rise overlooking a shallow basin to the W. The early church site and the parish church of Nobber (ME005-071001-) are within a subcircular graveyard (dims c. 60m E-W; c. 55m N-S) defined by scarps (H c. 1m) that were retained by a low masonry wall (H c. 0.5m), which is still visible at S. This graveyard was not enclosed in 1682-5, according to Dopping (Ellison 1973, 4), but it was extended on all sides (dims c. 75m E-W; c. 50m N-S) except the N after the 1836 ed. of the OS 6-inch map was made, and it is now defined by masonry walls (H c. 2m). When the present Church of Ireland church was built in 1771 (Lewis 1837, 1, 443) the graveyard may have been cut back at N. The graveyard contains the decommisioned 18th century church with a stone head (ME005-071017-) in the S wall, the ruins of a medieval church (ME005-071001-), two high crosses (ME005-071007-, ME005-071008-), a cross-slab (ME005-071009-), the Cruise effigial tomb (ME005-071004-), a font (ME005-071005-), a cross-base (ME005-071002-), seven crosses (ME005-071003-, ME005-071010-, ME005-071011-, ME005-071012-, ME005-071013-, ME005-071014-, ME005-071015-), architectural fragments (ME005-071016-), two 17th century effigial tomb-covers (ME005-071018-; ME0056-071019-) and a medieval graveslab (ME005-071005-). King (2005, 24; 2007, 58-63) records a number of other items including two mill-stones, that would appear to date from the early medieval period.

This cross has been described by King (2005, 22) as follows: ‘This small, sandstone, solid-ringed cross stands close to the entrance gate at the east end of the graveyard. It is unfortunately now set in modern cement and it is uncertain how much of the shaft is buried, but the surviving height is 35cm, with a maximum width of 32cm and depth of 8cm. The upper part of the head is worn smooth and one arm is missing. The present east face has a cross within a circle, with a central small holed boss surrounded by a simple interlace pattern that wraps around the boss and extends into the terminals of the arms. The west face has a small holed boss in the centre of the head, surrounded by a wheel of eight D-shaped sections within a circle. The sections to the top, bottom and two sides enclose small bosses. The lower shaft is framed by roll mouldings and the upper panels were decorated with interlaced patterns, but as only 4-7cm are visible the decoration is unintelligible. There is no previous account of this cross, and local people involved In the graveyard clean-up have assured me that It was found in this location. It appears, therefore, that the cross became buried in or close to Its present location some considerable time ago. This type of small, i.e. under 1.5m, 'high' cross was generally not included In Peter Harbison's major work 77V high crosses of Ireland (Bonn, 1992), although he does include three similar-sized crosses In Mcath at Balsitric, Colp and Knock. These three crosses are all solid-ringed crosses, and while the decoration on each is quite different they provide the best parallel for the Nobber cross. The simple, if slightly crude, interlace pattern on the head of the east face of the Nobber cross compares closely with that on the cross at Knock, while the west face with its bossed design Is not totally dissimilar to the design on one face of the Balsitric cross. Although all four crosses are small, their decoration is compatible with the repertoire of decoration on the more familiar non-scriptural high crosses in Meath and elsewhere.’ (King 2007, 44-6) Compiled by: Paul Walsh Date of upload: 2 September 2013 - ME005-071008: Cross - High cross, https://heritagedata.maps.arcgis.com/apps/webappviewer/index.html?id=0c9eb9575b544081b0d296436d8f60f8&query=18a4b61b268-layer-9%2CSMRS%2CME005-071008-. This cross has been described by King (2005, 22-3) as follows: ‘The second early medieval cross is located upside down in the centre of the graveyard. It is also carved from sandstone and stands 47cm above present ground level, with a further 15cm (minimum) below ground, and has a width of 26cm by 14cm. Two small rectangular holes in the north face provide the clues to the fate of this early medieval monument. These glazing bar holes indicate that the piece was reused as a window jamb probably in the later medieval church. The original edge roll mouldings, an iconic feature of so many early medieval crosses, can still be seen on the almost intact south-east angle; sections of the framed panels are still recognisable on the south, east and north sides, but the west face has been completely cut back and the north-east roll moulding removed to allow the shaft to serve its secondary function as a window jamb. In its current post-medieval life it marks an otherwise unidentified grave.' A note added to the image accompanying the article records that the cross shaft was lifted as the article was going to press and that the shaft is almost 1m in height and was decorated. 'The fragmentary figures have not been identified but the combination of figures and interlace without frames is reminiscent of the carving on the Broken cross at Kells.'

This cross-slab has been described by King (2005, 23) as follows: ‘This large sandstone slab was noticed leaning up against the north wall of the eighteenth-century decommissioned church. It had apparently been recovered when a grave was being dug some time ago in the graveyard. On placing it on the ground it took a few seconds to realise that this was a unique piece of early medieval sculpture. It is decorated in relief with a large ringed cross with hollowed angles, a circular hole 1.5cm deep in the centre of the transom and two figures flanking the shaft of the cross. The upper part of the slab is in good condition but a large section from the lower end is missing, and part of the surface in this area and a small number of spalls from the upper right side of the slab are broken away. It is 99cm in length. 66cm wide and 13.5cm thick. It is notable that the cross was carved almost completely within the matrix of the slab but that the arms of the cross extend for c. 1.5cm beyond the edge of the slab. The ring is carved in lower relief than the cross and tapers slightly as it joins the main shaft of the cross. The two figures facing the onlooker have short hair and small protruding ears and wear cloaks. The figure on the right, possibly bearded, has what appears to be a Celtic-type crosier, which he holds in his right hand against his left shoulder. What can be seen of the crosier shows the crook at right angles to the shaft and the drop at right angles to the crook, and there may be an indication of a knop immediately above the hand. The figure to the left is holding a square object, possibly a book, in his left hand against his right shoulder.’ (King 2007, 49-52) Compiled by: Paul Walsh Date of upload: 2 September 2013 - ME005-071010: Cross, https://heritagedata.maps.arcgis.com/apps/webappviewer/index.html?id=0c9eb9575b544081b0d296436d8f60f8&query=18a4b61b268-layer-9%2CSMRS%2CME005-071010-. From King (2007, 53, No. 1) Latin cross, 63cm in height, 33cms in width, 10cms deep in the south-west end of the graveyard is decorated on both faces. Almost all surfaces are chipped or damaged with spalls missing from the surface of both main faces. The east face has a cross pecked within a ring encircling the transom. The west face has a central cross pattern with bi-furcated stem and a second transom. The central cross is flanked by two uprights which attach to the crossing bars and to the terminals of the stem. There may have been a ring enclosing the upper part of the transom. This cross was noted in the Urban Archaeology Survey.

The east face has a latin cross and what appears to be an attempt to create roll moulding along the edge of the shaft. The west face has a simple latin cross.

This slab lies beside Nobber II and is known as the ‘Priest’s Tomb’ (Smith 1888, 28). This also had a marginal inscription in Roman capitals, but only a few words can now be deciphered: THIS TOMBE../../HIS. A. OW MADE FOR MURTAGH. The centre of the slab has the effigy of a priest in false relief in a round-headed recess, with arms bent at the elbows and upraised hands. Mortality symbols are carved under his out-turned feet. The inscription on this slab provides us with a clue to the identity of the person commemorated. The name ‘Murtagh’ can be read and, as this slab on iconographical grounds dates to c. 1700, it may well be a memorial to Murtagh Carolan, parish priest of Nobber in the late seventeenth century (Cogan 1862-70, 2, 332; Ellison 1973, 4).

Located on the S-facing slope of the NE-SW spur on which the town of Nobber was built. House-building had already commenced on a development site bounded by the railway cutting to the SW before archaeological supervision intervened, but excavation (07E0345) recovered archaeological deposits (max. D 1.5m) and suggests that the medieval occupation covered an area of c. 1000 square metres in this part of the town. The initial occupation in the late twelfth century was represented by a roadway (Wth 4.5m plus; L 35m plus E-W), numerous pits and a rectangular building (dims 8m x 4.5m) represented by post-holes, pad-stones, paving, and stake-holes with a doorway evidenced by a pivot stone on the S side. A complete mortar was recovered from the paving. A second structure (dims 6m E-W; 5m plus N-S) just to the E was less substantial, although it had a hearth unlike the main structure. The structures were covered by a silt layer, and a stone structure (dims 5.8m plus x 3m plus) was built in the S of the excavated area in the later thirteenth century. In the fourteenth century an E-W ditch (max. Wth 2m; max. D 1.1m; L 23m plus) which was filled with ash and charcoal deposits suggests there was metalworking in the neighbourhood, while a line of circular pits to the S containing more organic material and was probably on the line of a property boundary. The boundary was continually re-cut into the fifteenth century when a stone platform (dims 2.7m x 2m) was also constructed, and the corner of a building with hammer-dressed stone was also recorded. The area seems to have reverted to agricultural use in the seventeenth century, apart from pits c. 50m closer to the Main Street where there were also fragments of clay-bonded walls. A coin of William and Mary, dated 1694 was found on a paved floor associated with these.

Situated on a S and SE-facing slope. Archaeological testing (08E0949) by A. Hayden on the site of a new sports pitch (excavations.ie 2008:975) recorded a burnt mound, medieval property boundaries and the site of a holy well (Tobernamuc – the pig’s well) of which nothing survived. The excavation was continued with the same director and under the same licence in April and May 2009 (excavations.ie 2009: 658), although the details are not available and the precise location of features is not known. There was a circular hut-site (diam. 6-6.4m) defined by a single or double line of posts, but its doorway (Wth c. 1m) at SE was marked by larger post-holes with pad-stones. A hearth (diam. 1m) with an oxidised base was displaced from the centre but it was linked to a second unburnt pit. The hut-site was enclosed on the S side by part of a double line of posts. Also excavated were a fulacht fia (ME006-071002-), and portions of six medieval properties extending NW-SE over the area (ME006-071003-). Compiled by: Michael Moore - ME006-071002: Fulacht fia, https://heritagedata.maps.arcgis.com/apps/webappviewer/index.html?id=0c9eb9575b544081b0d296436d8f60f8&query=18a4b61b268-layer-9%2CSMRS%2CME006-071002-. Situated on a S and SE-facing slope. Archaeological testing (08E0949) by A. Hayden on the site of a new sports pitch (excavations.ie 2008:975) recorded a burnt mound, medieval property boundaries and the site of a holy well (Tobernamuc – the pig’s well) of which nothing survived. The excavation was continued with the same director and under the same licence in April and May 2009 (excavations.ie 2009: 658), although the details are not available and the precise location of features is not known. The excavation revealed that the W end of the posts surrounding the hut-site (ME006-071001-) underlay a large mound of heat-affected stone (max. T 0.35m), beneath which was a circular hearth (diam. c. 2m), identified as a fulacht fia. Just to the S of the hearth was a rectangular trough that was partially lined with stones and clay. A large circular pit filled with burnt and broken stone was W of the trough but this pit was cut by a medieval pit. No artefacts were recovered but an unshed deer antler was recovered from the mound. A NE-SW ditch (Wth 1.5m; D 1.5m) that drained to the SW (H 1m) was dug through the mound of the fulacht fia but its SW end was cut by a medieval kiln. The ditch was closed by the time medieval occupation from the town extended over it from the 13th century onwards, and portions of six medieval properties extending NW-SE over the area were also excavated (ME006-071003-).

Hayden on the site of a new sports pitch (excavations.ie 2008:975) recorded a burnt mound, medieval property boundaries and the site of a holy well (Tobernamuc – the pig’s well) of which nothing survived. The excavation was continued with the same director and under the same licence in April and May 2009 (excavations.ie 2009: 658), although the details are not available and the precise location of features is not known. A NE-SW ditch (Wth 1.5m; D 1.5m) that drained to the SW (H 1m) was uncovered, which had been dug through the mound of the fulacht fia (ME006-071002-), but its SW end was cut by a medieval kiln. The ditch was filled with sterile light brown silt with lenses of sand but there was no evidence of an accompanying bank. No artefacts were recovered from the ditch although a charcoal sample from it returned a fourteenth century radiocarbon date. However, the ditch was closed by the time medieval occupation from the town extended over it. Portions of six properties extended NW-SE over the area were identified, running out at a low-lying wet area at SE. The properties were defined by shallow gullies from which pottery of local manufacture and of probable thirteenth to fifteenth century date was recovered. Two of the plots (Wth c. 10m) had cross-drains at their SE ends but the NW ends of all the properties probably fronted onto the lane (ME005-071022-) identified in excavation within the town and these would have been within the urban area too. Only a small section of one plot was present at the E edge and the next plot had no features, but property No. 3 had a kiln at the N end that partially overlaid the house from plot No. 4. This plot had an oven and rake-out pits at its S end. Plot No. 4 was occupied by a large building aligned NW-SE that was constructed of clay-bonded stone, and which might have had a doorway at the E angle. The floor was a compacted clay and gravel mix, and a wooden partition divided it into two unequal rooms. Its S end was truncated by a large oven and its N end was cut by a kiln from plot No. 3. Plot No. 5 had a sunken area for a structure of some kind but it also had a keyhole-shaped kiln. Property No. 6 was aligned N-S down the S-facing slope at this point and although its W edge was not present it had three kilns at the S end, one with a wind-break and the N end of the plot was cut by later pits and disturbance.
