Abstract: |
The excavation conducted at Rectory Farm, Laughton-en-le-Morthern revealed extensive archaeological remains dating from the Anglo-Saxon period up to the 19th century. the excavated remains took the form of a series of ditches, which may reflect former tenement boundaries and which sub-divided the excavated area. Within the various site sub-divisions were pits, post-holes and the remains of three kilns, one of which was a wattle and daub construction of Anglo-Saxon date, whilst another was a well made stone drying kiln of medieval date. The artefact assemblage contains a significant group of Anglo-Saxon wares from Lincoln, as well as other notable pre-Conquest diagnostic artefacts. Elements of the medieval assemblage are suggestive of high status occupancy in the near vicinity. |
