Archaeologists from NAU have been on site this week, and have examined the archway revealed last week, as the builders started to make careful repairs to some plaster on interior walls.  They have concluded that this does not go all the way through the wall, so was not a window or doorway, but is more likely to have been a window-shapped niche. It’s very difficult to date, but is probably 15th century, and there may be other similar architectural features that have been covered over time.

We’ve been visited by an artist from Norwich-based Graffiti group, Stickyfingerz this week. Tony Allen is interested in using the hoardings which are covering our scaffolding at the moment as a ‘blank canvas’ for a mural, and is hoping to paint it up at the end of the week.  The idea is to reflect the different businesses on the alleyway, and to provide something bright and colourful for the duration of the time that the scaffold will remain in place. We look forward to seeing the results!
