Abstract:
A single archaeological evaluation trench was excavated at White House Farm, The Common, Mellis, in advance of development of the site. Medieval agricultural and settlement activity was identified, characterised by two ditches and a pit dating to between the 11th-14th century. The evaluation produced the largest assemblages of medieval pottery to have been recovered from anywhere in Mellis in recent decades. One of the ditches dated more specifically to the 13th-14th century. Evidence for food waste disposal and the presence of fired clay, possibly from oven domes, are indicative of medieval settlement activity.
