NY 250755. A short season of excavation on the site of the deserted medieval village of Kirkconnel revealed, instead of a medieval house, much of the ground plan of a large timber hall of 6th-7th century date. This survived beneath a bank and ditch feature best interpreted as a late 17th or 18th century pillow mound. Diagnostic finds were few, the principal one being a glass eye-bead with parallels in W European and Irish contexts. The plan of the hall was indicated by a series of single postholes representing a long narrow building with all but parallel sides. Its average width was about 18ft and its length more than 55ft. It does not appear to have been of aisled type. Au(amp) | |||||||||||||||
