More about the book

This monograph uses new evidence from extensive excavations, along with in-depth analysis of documentary records, to revisit many ongoing debates on the origins and development of Southampton. A major new investigation of this area revealed an impressive series of medieval buildings with vaulted cellars, containing rare and exotic finds. It shows how the medieval tenements evolved from late Saxon urban estates, and how the dynamics of international trade and diplomacy shaped the changing fortunes of the city.
