2. Winchester and Late Medieval Urban Development: From Palace to Pentice

Abstract

THE PENTICE, a medieval, colonnaded walkway centrally placed on the south side of the High Street in Winchester, Hampshire, occupies part of the site of the former Norman palace. Other medieval colonnaded walkways exist, notably at Chester and Totnes, but it is not entirely clear when these latter walkways were created, nor whether they resulted from piecemeal development over time, or from a single, concerted campaign of building. These questions are explored with regard to The Pentice in Winchester between c. 1250 and c. 1550 in this interdisciplinary study, which includes evidence from archaeology, dendrochronology, documents and standing remains. Key new evidence has come recently from dendrochronology, allowing a re-evaluation of documentary evidence and of dates at present ascribed to standing remains on typological grounds. This study presents fresh evidence for the structure of The Pentice in the 14th century and examines the case for development of the present form of the buildings in the late 15th and early 16th centuries. Finally, it is noted that this new evidence encourages a re-examination of the argument that structural alignments and split-level retailing were indicators of pre-plague pressure on street frontage which eased after the Black Death.

The article focuses on the archaeological objects found in England as recorded by the Portable Antiquities Scheme of the council for museums, libraries and archives. A Loxton copper-alloy horse-harness mounted on a curved rectilinear was found in Avon. It was a rare class of metalwork connected on Early Anglo-Saxon equestrianism. A stirrup from 11th-12th century was found in Cambridgeshire. In Hertfordshire, Pre-Construct Archaeology Ltd. discovered medieval wells, postholes and pits cutting into the natural chalk.
