Abstract: |
A scheme of intermittent archaeological inspection and recording was undertaken during building works. Nothing of archaeological significance was present in the car parking area. In the area of the vestry extension the remains of at least 24 inhumations were encountered in a much-disturbed area. Excavation of wall foundation trenches revealed the cobbled raft foundations of the north wall of the medieval church. Subsequent drainage works to the southeast of the church produced medieval pottery and ceramic roofing tile fragments. The architectural characteristics of the features of the doorway in the North aisle were also recorded in detail during its unblocking and restoration. [Au(abr)] |
