Abstract:
An archaeological evaluation was undertaken in advance of proposals to redevelop the site for residential use. There had been several recent excavations in and around Fordham including sunken features buildings, post built structures, enclosures and human burials, with occupation evidence becoming more concentrated towards the east of the site, which was adjacent to the graveyard of the parish church. The evaluation revealed five ditches and one gully. The ditches were of a similar alignment to the Saxon ditches identified in investigations at No. 12 Hillside Meadow and No. 20 Hillside Meadow. In sum, the ditches were likely to have been of Saxon date and may have represented domestic activity relating to the Saxon occupation recorded in the area. [Au(abr)]
