Abstract: |
A programme of archaeological observation and recording at the church of St Michael and All Saints was undertaken in February and September 2016 during the installation of a toilet in the south porch and kitchen in the south aisle, and associated drainage. Cleaning of the floor surface beneath the pew platform removed in the south-west corner of the south aisle in advance of installation of a kitchen unit revealed no archaeological features. Similarly, removal of part of a platform supporting the organ in the north east corner of the north aisle did not reveal any archaeological remains. Removal of the concrete floor in the south porch, most recently used as a vestry, revealed a flagstone floor which respected the edges of benches which had flanked the west and east sides of the porch but were long removed. Three 18th-century graveslabs had been incorporated into the floor. No other archaeological features or artefacts were found. A very small quantity of human bones was found during excavation of the pipe trench, for the foul drainage, across the churchyard. These bones were reburied in the trench. No in situ burials were disturbed. |
