Abstract:
In advance of a potential housing development and the future submission of planning permission a 5% archaeological evaluation was conducted by trial trenching. The most fruitful area for archaeological remains was within the centre of the site towards the eastern edge (Trench 7). Here pits, post-holes and a gully were detected, preserved under a deposit of colluvium (hillwash). The majority of the features were likely to be of late medieval to post-medieval date, with the gully feature yielding a gold posy ring of the 18th century. Soil samples taken from the same feature indicate that primary smithing was happening in the vicinity as attested by the presence of small droplets of slag, hammerscale and ferrous spheroids. The Ordnance Survey maps of the late 19th century show that this area was close to a dovecot and a saw pit so that semi-industrial and other village activity probably extended into this area during the post-medieval period. Not much evidence for a previously recorded scatter of medieval pottery across the north of the site was observed (HER site UFF 016). A small quantity of abraded medieval pottery was found in colluvial deposits near to the northern edge of the site and a ditch representing an earlier field boundary contained pottery of late medieval date. This ditch and an undated ditch near the western edge of the site are on similar alignments to the present field boundaries and are thus likely to belong to earlier sub-divisions of the 19th century field arrangements seen in the early editions of the Ordnance Survey map.
