Abstract: |
In June 2020, Cotswold Archaeology carried out an archaeological watching brief at Greendale Farm, Greendale Lane, Clyst St Mary, Exeter, Devon. The watching brief area was previously occupied by an 18thcentury farmhouse building, which was demolished prior to the monitored groundworks. It is probable that a medieval messuage or farmhouse formerly occupied the site. The watching recorded a possible former stream, the fill which contained pottery dating from the later 16th or 17th century up to the 18th century. Also recorded were partial foundations associated with the northern and western parts of the demolished postmedieval farmhouse. A well was recorded immediately outside of the former building; the backfill of this well contained a single pottery sherd dating from the later 16th to 18th centuries. There was no evidence for a medieval precursor to the postmedieval farmhouse. There were no structures or features clearly pre-dating the post-medieval period, and no residual medieval artefacts were present. |
