Abstract The abstract describing the content of the publication or report |
Rescue excavations in the small village of Llanmaes investigated an area of earthworks indicating the presence of several buildings. Medieval evidence was largely confined to finds. Three late-seventeenth-century properties were examined; it is possible that they represent a planned development on the east side of the village green in response to population expansion in the Vale of Glamorgan. The buildings are of simple two-roomed plan, and would appear to be tenements of low status. One of the buildings produced evidence of smithying. A large group of metal finds of agricultural and domestic use was found, as was a closely-dated assemblage of wine bottles; a large midden deposit on the north edge of the site contained a very large group of post-medieval pottery. The buildings were abandoned by the end of the end of the eighteenth century, presumably following rationalization of the local settlement morphology and farming. Thus the site represents a short-lived expansion of low-status rural housing at the time of the `Great Rebuilding'. Includes specialist reports on | ||||||||
