Abstract:
The archaeological evaluation did not reveal any evidence of activity from the prehistoric, Roman, Saxon or medieval periods. A series of superimposed natural clay layers; the uppermost usually affected by natural weathering and/or alluvial processes was identified. Post-medieval finds were located from worked soils, possibly ploughsoils, as was the line of a trackway formerly flanked with walls that was known to date to at least 1913 from cartographic evidence. This trackway led directly from Marston Road to the farm and there was evidence of a further trackway south of the farm, also known to have been in use in 1913. Structural remains of a greenhouse and a well were also found south of the farm compound; these were both likely to date to the 19th or early 20th century. Within the limit of the farm were the remains of earlier (demolished) structures, including a well-preserved cobbled yard surface and stone trackway. The pottery from beneath the surface dated to the 18th/19th century, thus giving an approximate date for the construction of these structures. [Au(abr)]
