Abstract: |
The desk-based research has found that the site remained in the agricultural hinterland of Carleton throughout the post-medieval period, the southernmost field being used as a nursery from at least the late 19th century, with related features gradually encroaching into the site until it was finally cleared between 1971 and 1987. The potential for earlier features to survive was also identified in the form of possible prehistoric or Roman features and also medieval. The geophysical survey encountered anomalies interpreted as post-medieval agricultural features including plough furrows, a former trackway and garden/allotment boundaries relating to the nursery identified by the research. |
