Abstract: |
John Moore Heritage Services carried out an archaeological watching brief in the churchyard of St Andrew's Church, Church Road, Sandford upon Thames, Oxfordshire. The work was carried out during the excavation of a cable trench for a new ground-source heating system. The excavations produced a small number of disarticulated human bone fragments and some animal bone from the topsoil. No other finds or features were identified. A buried soil horizon near to the tower which contained frequent inclusions of limestone chipping may relate to the construction of the church tower in the 19th century. Deposits of made up ground in the eastern foundation trench may derive from the construction of the adjacent village hall and it is possible that earthworks relating to deserted medieval village may have been buried by these deposits. |
