Abstract: |
An archaeological watching brief was undertaken on the excavation of new drainage at Shobdon Church, Herefordshire. The drains ran along the northern, southern and eastern sides of the church before crossing the position of the former Shobdon Court to a soakaway. A single burial, of a child, was encountered at the eastern end of the church. Also at the eastern end of the church was a brick structure, possibly a vault. Human bones in the vicinity suggested that this structure may have cut a further burial. A stone drain, thought to have formed part of the original drainage system installed at the time of the construction of the church in the 18th century ran along the length of the north transept. Walls and cellarage, filled with building rubble and associated with Shobdon Court, were seen on the southern part of the site. |
