Abstract: |
<summary>Salvage recording was undertaken on the route of a pipeline running to the Water Treatment Works at Whitbourne, on behalf of Welsh Water. Small scatters of artefacts indicated that limited manuring of the land with domestic refuse was occurring in both the Medieval and Post-Medieval periods, but that use of the land in the area was not primarily arable. Close to the village, this may be due to the land falling within a vineyard in the Bishop's park associated with the palace at Whitbourne. No new occupation sites were identified. Earthworks and a backfilled channel probably representing part of a leat were recorded, and can clearly be linked to the general water management of the Sapey Brook associated with a previously documented watermill (HWCM9454). {italon}Sec(21c)/Au(?abr){italoff} {italon}SMR Primary Record Numbers:{italoff} HWCM15641 - 15647 |
