Abstract:
[SP 152344]. A longhouse of 13th-14th century with associated buildings has been cleared; notable features include a stair-pit to an upper room, cesspits and an infant burial. Below the house were traces of timber buildings and ditches of three phases, the earlier of which are probably of pre-conquest date. The western boundary of the village consisted of a stone wall preceded by timber features of pre-conquest origin. The boundary included positive and negative lynchets, the westernmost croft showing evidence of cultivation. A survey has been made of the field systems of Blockley parish, but this is not included in the present report. Finds in the longhouse suggest a comparatively high standard of living, and the lower end of the building was demonstrably not for animals. Au(amp)
