Monument record: MCC859 Town Wall, Colchester (Monument)The Town Wall was intially constructed free standing at an early date following the Boudican revolt, although the exact date is open to interpretation. Six gates were built into the wall, including the Balkerne Gate (MCC555) on the west side - the main gate - which incorporated a free-standing monumental arch (MCC718), as well as a series of rectangular towers and tile drains at the end of streets. An interior rampart was added in the late 2nd century AD and, at some point, a V-shaped defensive ditch was cut around the outer foot of the wall. This was modified in the late 3rd century, and two of the town gates were closed off. Major repairs were carried out in 1173-4. During the Middle Ages there were four main gates (along with two or three pedestrian gates) into the walled town, with the main gate on the south side near the south-west corner, Head Gate. A programme of repairs was initiated between c.1381-1413, including the addition of eight bastions on the south-east circuit (four survive above ground). Beside the four principal gates, there were two sherde (pedestrian) gates, on the north and south sides of the circuit, and another on the west side; no medieval gate structures survive above ground. The town wall and its gates suffered significant damage during the 1648 Siege.
