Abstract: |
An archaeological desk-based assessment and evaluation were undertaken in advance of proposals to extend the burial ground. The desk-based assessment indicated the possibility of prehistoric, Roman, medieval and later remains in the vicinity of the site. The field evaluation revealed sparse ditches/gullies of probable medieval/post-medieval date. These comprised small ditches and gullies on the same axial alignment as the existing boundaries of the site, suggesting that the landscape had changed little in the vicinity of the site since the medieval period. No burials associated with an early church on the site were encountered, and there was no evidence of earlier Romano-British occupation of the immediate vicinity. [Au(abr)] |
