Abstract: |
An archaeological evaluation was undertaken at Northfield Farm, on the former Jaguar Plant, Browns Lane Coventry (NGR SP 3010 8140). It was undertaken on behalf of CgMs Consulting Ltd for their clients, Goodman Limited, who intends to construct a combination of commercial and domestic properties for which a planning application has been granted. The project aimed to determine if any significant archaeological remains predating that of the former 19th century farmhouse were present and if so to indicate what their location, date and nature were. The investigation demonstrated that demolition in 2008 of the 19th century farm, while thorough, did not completely remove all traces of the farm complex. The southern foundation of the farmhouse survived partially and a stone culvert running across the former courtyard area remained intact. No evidence was revealed of earlier occupation on the site with any possible evidence being removed by later intrusive works, including landscaping related to the construction of 19th century farm buildings themselves. No significant archaeological features, layers, structures or horizons were observed, nor artefacts recovered. |
