Abstract: |
An archaeological watching brief was carried out during the digging of the footings and a service trench for an extension to a house. The excavation revealed five probable boundary ditches, three of which were dated to the 12th century. One of the ditches also contained animal bone. A significant amount of 12th to 15th-century pottery was recovered from the topsoil. There were four sherds of residual Roman pottery. A small quantity of St. Neots Ware suggests activity beginning in the 11th century, while the majority of the pottery from the ditches dates to the 12th century with a little later medieval material. |
