Further evidence for the industrial nature of the northern
extra-mural suburb of Canterbury from the Roman, through medieval
and post-medieval periods, was discovered in excavations close to
North Lane. Roman discoveries include quarries servicing the
pottery and tile industry, a series of heavily-used roads and a
late Roman road-side burial, possibly a family group. Medieval
industrial and commercial activity to the rear of premises on North
Lane is evident from the contents of pits and features of the
period. A study of medieval plots and later boundaries suggests
that the line of the Roman road was preserved in the local
topography until relatively recent times.
