Abstract:
No results of archaeological significance were revealed by the soil strip. A trench for a water pipe was exposed at the top of the slope but no other cut features were identified. The topsoil within the excavated area, (101), is a dark reddish brown friable silty clay ranging in depth from 0.06m deep at the top of the slope to 0.25m at the lower end of the stripped area. This lay directly on top of the natural geology, (102), a frost-shattered light grey slate. The field boundary at the top of the slope, B1, was breached to make an entrance into the site and the opportunity was taken to record a section through it. The section revealed a single phase earth bank 3m wide at the base and 1m high. It was noted that sections of the boundary to the east were stone-faced but no stone component was noted in the exposed section. Several finds were recovered from the topsoil. These comprised a sherd of Cornish medieval coarseware of fourteenth or fifteenth century date, a sherd of imported Frechen stoneware of eighteenth century date, and a sherd of terracotta flowerpot, a sherd of white china, a shard of glass, and a piece of polished bone, probably a knife handle, all of nineteenth century date. The finds confirm that there was earlier medieval and post-medieval activity on the site and there was the potential for associated settlement remains to survive in the area.
