Abstract:
An archaeological watching brief was undertaken by Oakford Archaeology between March and July 2017 at the Church of Our Lady, Upton Pyne, Devon. The site lies immediately to the south and west of the church, extending south and east from the tower. A watching brief was maintained during works associated with the construction of a French drain along the west and south walls of the south aisle. The work involved the excavation of a trench 0.25m wide and c. 0.85m deep. Inspection of the trench exposed the base of the wall foundation at a depth of 0.85m below current ground level, projecting approximately 0.1m beyond the edge of the wall. The foundation sat directly on top of natural subsoil. The trenching further exposed a 0.1m thick dark brown topsoil (100) overlying a heavily reworked mid to dark brown silty clay deposit (101) extending in places below the depth of the foundation. This contained frequent fragments of disarticulated human bone and has been interpreted as a charnel soil.
