Abstract:
An archaeological watching brief was undertaken by Oakford Archaeology in April 2014 at St Gabriel's Church, Stoke Gabriel, Devon. The site lies immediately to the west of the 15th century Rood screen. The church is grade I listed and is first mentioned in the Domesday book of 1086. Only the tower remains of the 13th century building, the remainder having been rebuilt during the late 14th-15th century. The church was heavily refurbished between 1848-55 and again 1928-31. A watching brief was maintained during works associated with the construction of a new gas-fired heating system. The work involved the removal of existing slabs and ground reduction extending to a depth of 0.2m. The existing stone slabs, consisting of local limestone set in a mixture of fine sandy lime mortar and concrete, were re-laid. Inspection of the area exposed the top of a mid reddish brown silty clay deposit (100), interpreted as a heavily reworked charnel soil, containing frequent fragments of disarticulated human bone. The work exposed the top of a heavily reworked charnel soil, although no dating evidence was uncovered, and the shallow nature of the excavations meant that disturbance was kept to a minimum.
