Abstract:
An archaeological evaluation was carried out on land to the north of Wrights Farmhouse, Lower Green Lane, Blackmore End. Four trenches were excavated across a possible medieval house platform. Although only limited excavation was undertaken, the nature of the earthwork is now better understood. One deposit of probable Roman date was excavated. The recovery of a quantity of unstratified Late Iron Age to Roman pottery indicates the likely presence of further archaeological remains of this date in the vicinity. It is clear from the pottery evidence that the house platform earthwork is likely to date to the late medieval period. A ditch demarcating the western side of the platform contained 13th-16th century pottery and further unstratified pottery of this date was recovered from upon the platform itself. No building remains were identified, but it is likely that these sherds of late medieval pottery accumulated during use of the platform. The lack of later pottery suggests that the platform had gone out of use by the end of the 16th century. The remains of 19th century outbuildings, associated with Wrights Farmhouse and depicted on the 1st edition Ordnance Survey map, were also identified in the south of the field.
