Abstract: |
Archenfield Archaeology conducted an evaluation excavation in advance of housing development in Longtown, Herefordshire, in June 2001. The property, Greyhound Farm, is to the south-east of the centre of Longtown. The excavation discovered no features which were interpreted as medieval. It was concluded that the buildings and properties along the south-west side of the road were the result of post-medieval encroachment onto what had originally been highway. A linear earthwork extending from the south-eastern end of the development area was tentatively identified as part of the bounds of ''Merthir Clitauc'', confirmed or re-established in the early 8th century when King Ithel of Gwent/Glywysing granted to the church of Ergyng/Llandaff. |
