Leicester Town Defences by Richard Buckley and John Lucas

VINTAGESTAN BOOKS
Title: Leicester Town Defences by Richard Buckley and John Lucas 
Summary: The book publishes the results of archaeological excavations carried out in Leicester between 1958 and 1974, focusing on the Roman and medieval town defences. It brings together fragmented evidence from multiple sites to reconstruct how the town’s defensive system developed over time. Buckley and Lucas argue that Leicester’s defences were complex, multi-phase constructions, beginning with earthworks and later upgraded with stone, rather than a single planned system. The book emphasizes the need to interpret fragmentary archaeological data carefully.
