Abstract: |
An archaeological evaluation was carried out at Longbridge Manor, Warwick, prior to planning permission being granted for a single storey building and a new area of parking. A total of 50m of trenching divided into six trenches was excavated. The earliest feature was probably a small gully located in Trench 3 in the south-west of the area. This contained a single fragment of animal bone and a single piece of a fired clay object. The lack of any diagnostic pottery means that the feature remains undated. However the fired clay was very similar to that found in 1997 during an archaeological evaluation on the adjacent site in features that also contained Iron Age pottery. Trench 1 contained a single residual sherd of 13th- or 14th-century pottery and several sherds of 18th- or 19th-century pottery. Trench 4 contained brick and stone building remains which can be linked to greenhouses shown on the First Edition Ordnance Survey map of 1886. Trench 5 contained associated brick remains including part of a brick-lined tank. |
