Abstract: |
The results of archaeological monitoring carried out by South West Archaeology Ltd. for land on Durrant Lane, North, North Devon, Devon. The site is located in an area of archaeological potential, to the north of the medieval Durrant Manor. The archaeological monitoring at Durrant Lane identified an episode of modern landscaping as well as three archaeological features, all historic field boundaries reflecting the layout of the historic field-system. Whilst all of the features produced dating evidence to demonstrate their infilling during the mid 19th century or later, the curving nature of the features indicates that they may have had earlier, possibly medieval origins. The nature and quantity of the artefacts recovered from within ditch [105] suggests that that the boundary may have been removed at the same time as a structure depicted on the historic mapping was demolished, some of the rubble and waste making its way into the ditch fill. |
