Abstract: |
A programme of archaeological investigation was undertaken in advance of a development. Excavation of the site identified at least three phases of Late Iron Age/Romano-British activity on the site, as well as medieval archaeology and pre-Renny Lodge post-medieval features. Two phases of Romano-British activity were identified including enclosures, ditches, field systems, a road, and associated finds. The medieval phase of development on the site predominantly comprised field system ditches including a double-ditched arrangement and associated finds. Although limited evidence for post-medieval activity was recorded that pre-dated the construction of a workhouse at Renny Lodge in c.1836, the archaeology of this period was dominated by the development and expansion of the workhouse, which admitted its first inmates in 1837.
