We took the topsoil off area B/1 as long ago as 2002, but did not fully excavate it until the end of 2003. That is the beauty of not doing rescue archaeology you can leave an area till the next season if you want to, and go back to it. In 2002 we discovered that there were two extensive cuts through the re-deposited natural that seals the main site in this area.  Indicating that they were 17^th century from the ceramics in the fill. We excavated the western edge of the trench first and found that the cut terminated on top of a previous clay floor surface. This was next to a robbed granite slab lined trough directly in front of the dry drain described in B/2. The fill was layered with charcoal and at the top of the pit it could be seen quite clearly in the section drawing that there had been a fire on the top of the pit. The residue of consecutive fires had been brushed down into the pit. In the centre of trench B/1 was the remains of two low walls back backed with lemon stony decomposed shale. The large pit on the eastern side of the trench was full of chunks of clay from previously made up surfaces and a large amount of decomposed red wood and stone. In 2003 we decided to get to the bottom of this pit finally. Under this mixed clay/wood and stone layer was dark blue silt. This became increasingly wet as it was removed. All the silt was bagged up for wet sieving as it was so wet and mixed it was impossible to excavate in any conventional way. We sieved that week seven buckets of this silt and found 48 different types of textile strips in it. The weaves varied from very coarse twills to fine linen weaves. In colours from bottle green and brown to shades of blue and yellow. Various leather shoe parts were also in the fill, plus finger nail pairings and different kinds of human hair. The most exciting find was excavated on the western edge of this fill. Five small brass/copper pins. Each with different wound metal heads ranging from 2.5cm to 3cm long. One of these pins has a minute beaten gold head on it too. This type of pin we found was first manufactured in France in the 1350’s. When the whole of the area was excavated we discovered a stone lined rectangular pool. The stone lining was intact on the southern and western sides of the pool, but the north side had been robbed as the settings of the stone could still be seen. No sooner had we peeled the silt from this area the spring’s began to fill it. The main spring comes from the area under the floor in B/2, but there are many more that come from all sides of the rectangle. We thought at first we had not reached the base, but now believe that the later 17^th century and medieval cuts have destroyed the original base of the pool. It can be clearly seen on the edges that were still intact that the original base was faced white quartz stones set into pale yellow clay.
