| Location | Context Title | Context Description | Description (Modern) |
|---|---|---|---|
 | No. 15 Church Lane | A lower threshold to the front door corresponds in level with the footing along the south and part of the west walls and was therefore original to the house in its present form; later it was raised by 0.75 m. The front wall of Room 1 was not bonded into the northern section of the street frontage but judging from the depth of its foundations was a fragment of an older building incorporated in the present structure. | (none) |
