| Summary: | Remnants of Barnstaples ancient town defences have been unearthed. A small team of archaeologists found the 1000 year old earthworks in a back garden between Green Lane and Boutport Street. They may have once surrounded an Anglo-Saxon stockade which was known to have been later reinforced by a wall in Medieval times. |
