Abstract: |
Archaeological recording was carried out during January and March 2017 at land north of Church Farm, Stoke Lyne, Oxfordshire during the construction of a new stable block. The site is in an area of archaeological interest, within the core of the medieval village and earthworks located in the area of the proposed development as recorded from Environment Agency lidar images, may have been related to a shrunken medieval village recorded on the Historic Environment Record (HER) 140m north west of the proposed site. No archaeological deposits were observed during excavation of the foundations associated with the stable block, but the soakaway drainage trench revealed a shallow linear ditch aligned north-south which was interpreted as a probable drainage/plot boundary. The position and orientation of the ditch conforms with a feature identified on the lidar image. Pottery finds indicate a mid-16th century date for the ditch feature suggesting that it is related to later phase of occupation. This may indicate that the earthworks are a later extension or movement of the 11th century settlement recorded at Lower Farm. |
