Abstract The abstract describing the content of the publication or report |
Between 2001 and 2003, Albion Archaeology undertook a series of archaeological investigations at Goswell End, Harlington. Based on the evidence of earthworks and the results of trial trenching, the site was thought to have comprised part of a shrunken or deserted medieval village, inhabited in the Middle Ages. However, the results of open-area excavation did not bear this out: apart from a few small pits and post-holes, there was little to suggest the former existence of substantial structures. Remains of a buried soil and possible enclosure ditches indicated that cultivation took place on the site. The most significant feature proved to be a hollow-way that crossed the site from north to south, with a subsidiary network of branching paths. This was an essentially medieval feature that remained in use as a major route up to the time of Enclosure, and can be identified as ‘Long Lane’, a thoroughfare shown on early maps. | ||||
