Abstract: |
John Moore Heritage Services carried out an archaeological watching brief during the excavation of a cable trench at the site of a scheduled medieval moat and settlement at Knighton Farm, Figheldean, Wiltshire. The excavations cut across the edge of the moat at a very oblique angle. The trench was also narrow and shallow and so any useful information regarding the construction of the moat or deposition was absent. A compact deposit of unworked flint boulders deposited within a cut wasidentified. The limitations of the narrow excavated area made the interpretation of the feature uncertain, and the cut may have been a foundation cut backfilled with stone. |
