Abstract: |
A programme of archaeological works was carried out in advance of the redevelopment of Woolsington Hall and Park into a sporting club. The development site was a historic park of known 17th century origin and may have been the location of a deserted medieval village identified from documentary sources. The Hall was Listed Grade II* and other buildings were Listed Grade II. Aspects of the redevelopment would alter the setting of the historic buildings and park features present and would destroy surviving ridge and furrow earthworks. A photographic and topographical survey was undertaken to preserve these features by record. Other archaeological work associated with the development included the excavation of ten trial trenches in the vicinity of the Hall to determine if aspects of the construction works impacted on potential archaeological remains. The results of this work were presented in a separate report. [Au(abr)] |
