Abstract:
Describes recent work on the site of the old church of St Mary along with the history of its condition since the eighteenth century. Archaeologically supervised consolidation work in 1995--1996 revealed three medieval cross-slabs used as lintels or sills and the shaft of a Saxon cross, described by earlier authors, two basal quoins and other decorated stones and architectural fragments, as well as several grave markers both in place and re-used in the churchyard wall and a chest tomb. Evidence of a curving earthen bank was found outside the present churchyard, and a resistivity survey indicated a rectangular building between the bank and the current churchyard wall. Evidence of changes to the fenestration and other architectural features, and to the churchyard boundaries, are discussed. A Roman altar previously found on the site and two tombstones which might be re-used Roman altars indicate the possible existence of a Roman religious site. Includes
