Abstract: |
Results of a desk-based appraisal and archaeological evaluation trenching carried out by South West Archaeology Ltd. (SWARCH) on land to the rear of The Old Coaching Inn, Queen Street, South Molton, Devon on the 14th and 15th of February 2013. Two evaluation trenches were excavated and revealed four ditches, two rectangular pits, six postholes and a cobbled pathway. It also revealed a substantial depth of made ground across the site of post-medieval and modern events. Two of the ditches were parallel and dated to the medieval period with a third ephemeral ditch is probably of the same date. Four of the postholes, aligned east-west, had identical characteristics, and were also dated to the medieval period. The footpath was dated to the post-medieval period but predated the majority of the made ground layers deposited in the post-medieval to modern period. All the other features were at least 20th century in date. |
