Abstract:
Four weeks of excavation and fieldwork were carried out at Middleton Stoney in June and July 1971 by the Oxford Delegacy for Extra-Mural Studies, in association with the Oxford City and County Museum and the Oxford Architectural and Historical Society. The site consisted ostensibly of the earthworks of a motte and bailey castle, recorded as having been destroyed in 1216. Preliminary survey of the castle earthworks suggested that a square enclosure to the south-east of the motte was not the bailey as had previously been thought. The aims of the excavation were thus to identify the castle bailey, to investigate any buildings within the square enclosure, and to test the suitability of the site for a research project and teaching purposes. The investigation confirmed that the bailey actually lay to the north-west of the motte, whilst excavation within the square enclosure revealed the remains of a rectangular building, apparently a workshop or agricultural structure of the 2nd century AD. Work is to continue at the site in 1971. LD
