Abstract: |
The desk-based investigation demonstrated the site to have been continuously occupied since at least the late 18th century, with several structural and boundary changes taking place during the period 1836-1904. The archaeological investigation of the surviving part of the site identified two linear features. Examination of these suggested they were ditches marking successive property boundaries. Perhaps the most significant conclusion of this work is that the line of the western boundary of the site is medieval in date and has continued in use to the present day. This boundary was defined by ditches until the late 18th or 19th century when the extant wall was constructed. |
