Abstract: |
South West Archaeology undertook archaeological monitoring of groundworks, excavation, recording and post-excavation report writing required as a condition of outline planning consent for the construction of a new dwelling at Lower Alsworthy Farm. The site is located approximately 100m north east of the core of Lower Alsworthy farmstead. Previous research indicates that the settlement probably pre-dates the Norman Conquest, and that a high status medieval house probably existed on or near the site of the present farmhouse. Two archaeological features were observed, investigated, excavated and recorded; a sub-circular cut interpreted as a possible post-hole but there were no other post-holes present to indicate any associated structure. The second feature was a north-south trending linear cut interpreted as a possible drainage ditch. No archaeological finds were present in either feature. |
