Abstract: |
Archaeology South-East (ASE), a division of the Centre for Applied Archaeology, UCL, was commissioned by Thomas Ford and Partners on behalf of the Great Dixter Trust to undertake archaeological monitoring during groundworks within the grounds of the historic house. The work was undertaken between the 7th December 2010 and the 29th August 2012. The excavation of c.250m of pipe trenches and ground reduction associated with the installation of a new biomass boiler were monitored. No significant archaeological deposits or features were encountered. However the most significant discovery was that of an undated timber threshing floor within the Great Barn encountered during pipe trenching, which necessitated the rerouting of the trench and allowed the recorded of this comparatively rare feature. |
