Abstract: |
Watching brief during groundworks at the Old Hall, Ashwell, Rutland, monitoring the excavation of 11 tree planting pits. The site lies within the area of a scheduled monument comprising the remains of a medieval settlement, watermill, millponds and gardens. Previous work in the area revealed cut features and variable depths of subsoil that probably relate to archaeological remains. In particular, one of these remains may represent garden terracing. The investigation revealed a sequence of natural, undated and modern deposits. Additionally, two possible medieval deposits contained within what may be a large feature (possibly the remains of a former quarry pit) were revealed. Finds retrieved during the investigation consisted of two sherds of medieval pottery, two animal bones, two fragments of modern tile and four fragments of coal. |
