Abstract: |
Wessex Archaeology was commissioned by Nick Johnston of English Heritage to carry out an archaeological watching brief during repair works to fencing at Bishop's Waltham Palace. The purpose of the watching brief was to comply with a condition of the Scheduled Monument Consent. An archaeologist was required to monitor the opening-up work conducted during the site visit. In brief, some fence posts had been damaged and the bases had rotted in situ. The fence posts are located beside the Latrine Pit of Bishop's Waltham Palace, which is thought to date from Bishop Wykeham's phase of build, between 1367-1404, and located to the east of the main hall and service room ranges. An earlier phase of wall is adjacent to the Latrine Pit, dating from mid to late 12th century. Despite the age of the adjacent buildings, it is thought that the post holes had been disturbed and reused several times and, therefore, the deposits within were of disturbed deposit. |
