Abstract:
An evaluation in the graveyard of All Saints Church, Mendham was undertaken to assess the site of a proposed meeting room; a detached new building that was to be linked to the north aisle. Mendham is of particular significance as it is believed to have its origins as an Anglo-Saxon episcopal site. The results of the excavation showed that the ground has been completely disturbed by a millennium of grave-digging. Although there are few remaining grave-markers left in this part of the churchyard, the site seems to have been used for burial throughout the 19th century when deeper interments became the norm. These late burials are closely spaced and have removed any potential evidence relating to the site's early history; either as an Anglo Saxon episcopal site or the shallower graves of a medieval cemetery.
