Abstract:
An archaeological evaluation consisting of three trial trenches was undertaken in advance of the construction of two new dwellings. A small pit in trench 2 contained the substantial part of the fragmented remains of an Iron Age pottery vessel. A ditch exposed in Trench 3 was aligned broadly parallel with Hill Lane. It contained three sherds of medieval pottery. Subsequent to the evaluation a WSI was produced for the excavation of the footprint and driveway of the proposed dwellings. In the event this was not carried out until after the new foundation trenches had been concreted and the internal floor areas mechanically reduced. Residual mitigation comprising the machine and hand cleaning of the exposed surfaces within part of the footprint established that the archaeological horizon had been removed. In the driveway it was established that the majority of the frontage included the backfill of a substantial medieval ditch dug along the edge of the road. the ditch may well have been a watercourse designed to carry spring water to the heart of the medieval village. A sherd of medieval pottery and animal bone were recovered from a slot cut through this feature.
