Abstract: |
An archaeological evaluation was undertaken at the former Lilac Farm, Mill Lane, Cottesmore in Rutland. Previous investigations at Lilac Farm had revealed evidence of late Saxon and medieval settlement, together with residues from nearby iron production. Although the greatest concentration of activity had been located in areas immediately adjacent to Mill Lane there was considered to be a potential for archaeologically significant deposits on the current site. In general the evaluation revealed a low density of potentially significant archaeological features, including the possible further extent of a ditch located in 2008, which was dated on the basis of associated pottery to the late 12th to 14th century. The only other features recorded in Trenches 1 and 2 were a pair of shall pits, both undated, and a possible posthole, which was also undated. |
