The remains of a rampart bank, built against the west/internal face of the medieval town wall, were revealed during several archaeological investigations along Back of the Walls south of Briton Street in the late 1980s and early 1990s. The rampart was found to have been contemporary with the town wall, and is thought to have been used as a building platform. (It is suggested that this section of the town wall was built in the mid to late 14th century, but before 1373. See separate record.)
