Abstract:
Oxford Archaeology was commissioned by Regeneration Holdings Limited to undertake a programme of archaeological watching brief at Church Farm, Lewknor, South Oxfordshire as part of a residential development of the site. The investigation was undertaken during works to open service trenches and foundation trenches for new houses and it followed a recent programme of building recording at the site. This building recording principally concentrated on a nationally significant Grade I listed barn believed to have been constructed in the second quarter of the 14th century and recognised as one of Oxfordshire's most important medieval buildings. The significance of the building largely lies in the fact that it was originally constructed as a medieval hall house and was later abandoned and converted to a barn. The watching brief found no evidence to suggest that the barn may originally have extended further to the north or that it originally adjoined a further range at this location. The archaeological monitoring identified a number of minor post-medieval features including the base of a later 19th-century WC block which probably relates to a building first shown on the 1881 OS map, two stubs from probably later 18th/19th-century walls and three posts probably from post-medieval buildings. These posts extended below the level of ground reduction so were not fully investigated but one was removed and it was found to be sitting directly on a brick which may be of 16th or 17th century date but was probably reused. Very few archaeological features were revealed in the excavations in the western part of the site although a possible lynchet or terrace was identified in the foundation trenches of the garage for House 3.
