Abstract: |
An archaeological evaluation and was undertaken by Cotswold Archaeology in September and October 2008 at Land Adjacent to Shropshire Union Canal, Tattenhall Road, Cheshire. Seventeen trenches were excavated during the archaeological evaluation and three areas were opened during the archaeological strip, map and sample. Field boundary ditches and furrows dating to the post-medieval period were identified. These field boundaries appeared to have been removed following the construction of the canal and railway. The groundplan of a brick-built building depicted on the Tattenhall Tithe Map of 1838 was uncovered together with the ditch defining an associated garden or paddock. The brick-built building was demolished and the remains cast into a marl extraction pit that was also depicted on the Tithe Map. |
