Abstract: |
An archaeological excavation was carried out by Oakford Archaeology inside the church of St Michael the Archangel, Trusham, Devon, in September 2013. The work comprised the monitoring of construction works during extensive re-ordering of the interior of the church. The work exposed the top of medieval and post-medieval vaults and graves within the nave, north aisle and chancel. A small area of earthen flooring survived in front of the south doorway, although generally the level of truncation was such that no earlier features or deposits were found within the development area. Fragments of medieval earthenware floor tiles, dating to the 13th-17th century, were recovered from the disturbed soil. This included a type from the Normandy region of France not previously identified at St Michael's Church. |
