Abstract: |
Terrain Archaeology undertook a programme of archaeological observations and recording during groundworks for the construction of a new toilet and store building immediately south of the Church of the Holy Rood, Church Lane, Wool. A single burial, probably uncoffined, and potentially of medieval or early post-medieval date, was discovered in a narrow service trench connecting the new building with the South Aisle of the church. The edge of another undated possible grave was also noted close-by to the southeast. Human remains were entirely absent from the footprint of the new building, indicating that this area has not been used for burial. A boundary ditch exposed at the base of the embanked eastern edge of the churchyard contained finds of primarily 20th century date. |
