Abstract: |
The results of the evaluation demonstrated the surviving west wing and the now demolished north wing had their origins in the 14th and 15th century and had seen much alteration including major building works in the 17th century. The most extensive building phase of the site included a possible north-south aligned first floor hall with a porch at the northern end, aligned directly on the clocked gateway identified in the demolished northern wing. The hall had at least two bays divided by a screen, with walls constructed of rock chalk. Stylistically the building could be as early as the 14th century, although the use of rock chalk suggests a slightly later 15th or 16th century date. The internal area of the moat revealed a number of buildings. Post-medieval pottery with a function in dairying was recovered in large quantities from the demolition deposits. [Au(abr)] |
