The collection supports the narrative published in N. Palmer and J. Parkhouse 'Burton Dassett Southend, Warwickshire: a medieval market village' (Society for Medieval Archaeology Monograph). The print volume , which is 'part 1' of the dissemination of the Burton Dassett Southend project, is a free-standing narrative which contains introductory material (including the local archaeological and historical contexts), a summary of the structural evidence, organised by phase, discussion and analysis of the settlement's material culture, spatial organisation, buildings and economy, a concluding chapter and bibliography.
The collection deposited with ADS is 'part 2' of the Burton Dassett Southend publication. It incudes the detailed 'level 3' structural narrative, organised by area, together with the specialist contributions which underpin the printed volume, and the composite bibliography for both the print volume and the digital downloads.
Of particular note is the large artefact assemblage, including the pottery which was a significant component of the Warwickshire Pottery Type Series. The archaeometallurgical analyses represent one of the most detailed analyses of a medieval smithy.
