Abstract: |
Border Archaeology was commissioned to undertake an Archaeological Observation of drainage trench excavations associated with conversion of the upper storey of an existing garage at Clifford Castle to occasional guest accommodation. The site lies just outside the bailey of Clifford Castle and is outside the Scheduled Ancient Monument. Work followed on from Border Archaeology's programme of excavation connected with the extension of the house and the insertion of a wine cellar, which uncovered evidence for a number of pits and layers containing pottery dating to between the 12th and 13th centuries, with some residual material of 11th to 12th century date. No archaeological deposits or features were seen during the present phase of work, with modern deposits and features lying immediately above natural subsoil. |
