Abstract: |
An archaeological field evaluation carried out at No. 10 Camp Lane Ludlow revealed a series of deposits probably associated with domestic occupation of the site between the late medieval period (c. 1500) and the present day. Removal of late post-medieval garden soils revealed a crude stony surface at a depth of 1.2m below current ground level, probably representing 17th or 18th century ground consolidation associated with a floor or yard surface in the vicinity of a dwelling. Underlying the surface was a sandy garden soil containing late medieval or early postmedieval glazed pottery. This deposit was not fully excavated but extended to a depth in excess of 1.65m below current ground level. The site has been identified as being located within the bounds of the Christcroft, a linear feature identified as a holloway or possibly a ditch oriented NNW-SSE. It seems likely that the considerable depth of soils encountered lie within this feature. |
