Abstract:
[TL 383009]. Rescue excavations in the grange yard of the monastic home farm of the Augustinian Abbey revealed an early monastic flint-and-stone-walled three-bay aisled forge. There was evidence of iron smelting and lead and bronze working. A well was lined with oak casks. Underlying occupation of the 10th-11th-12th centuries was evidenced by gullies, pits, post-holes and a double palisade fence. It is interpreted as part of the outer manorial enclosure. Finds included iron ore, much bloomery and smithing waste, bar material, blanks, tools and other iron objects, with a large group of 12th-century pottery (mainly shell-tempered) and some glazed imports.
