Abstract: |
Four test pits were hand-excavated by in the churchyard to a maximum depth of 1.20m. The test pits were located to the south of the church, adjacent to the south aisle. Test Pit (TP) 1 was excavated immediately against the south aisle wall and buttress with the purpose of defining the base of structural foundations; Test Pits 2 to 4 were excavated within the footprint of the proposed development with the purpose of determining the depth of burials. Small quantities of disarticulated human bone, animal bone, ceramic building material (CBM), pottery, roof slate, clay tobacco pipe, iron slag, glass and one small fragment of moulded stone, possibly window tracery, were recovered. With the exception of finds from TP 1, these were reburied at the base of excavations upon backfilling of the test pits. [Au(abr)] |
