(S1) records this medieval concentration as Site 31. Medieval documentary references to people with the name 'de Glosbrigg' in the area around Home Lane suggest that there was a medieval manorial site or small settlement in this area. From the pottery evidence activity seems to have ceased by the late medieval period.
See (S1) for more details.
