Abstract: |
Archaeology South-East was commissioned by Mr and Mrs Findlay to undertake a trial-trenching evaluation at their property, Old Hall, in Bartlow, Cambridgeshire. The work was carried out in March 2015 and consisted of the machine-excavation of one trial trench within the footprint of the proposed extension. Old Hall is a Grade II Listed 16th century building, occupying the site of a medieval manor house. It lies to the south-west of the medieval church of St Mary. The area to the south and east of the Hall contains important Roman remains, including buildings and cemeteries and the Bartlow Hills- a group of six or seven Roman burial mounds. A dump layer containing late medieval or 16th century bricks was recorded which may represent a garden path. No archaeological remains were found that could be definitely dated to earlier than the post-medieval period. There was no evidence relating to a medieval precursor to Old Hall nor were any Roman finds or features encountered. The results of the evaluation indicate that no significant archaeological remains are likely to be present within the proposed extension area. |
