Abstract: |
Archaeological Research Services Ltd was commissioned by Mr Paul Mendham Stonemasons Ltd to undertake a scheme of archaeological mitigation during development works on land at St. John's Church, Alkmonton, Derbyshire. The work was in part fulfilment of an archaeological condition attached to planning consent (NP/DDD/0915/0881) Archaeological supervision and monitoring in the form of an Archaeological Watching Brief was required during the underpinning of church walls around the chancel and the excavation of trenches for the insertion of a new drainage system. The monitoring was largely focused on the church foundation, contributing insights related construction techniques used at the time and subsequent structural interventions and maintenance works on the lower fabric of the church. In particular two floorings have been identified inside the nave of the church, a concrete underpinning laying beneath the brick foundations, which appears to be a later addition, and a sequence of buried clay water pipes on east side of the church porch. This report presents the results of the archaeological work which took place in two phases the first 7th of November2018 and the second between 18th and 19th of March 2019. The work was undertaken by Alexis Thouki Assistant Projects Officers at Archaeological Research Services Ltd and the project was managed by Adam Lodoen, Manager at Archaeological Research Services Ltd. |
