Abstract:
The evaluation comprised two trenches, excavated in advance of a proposed extension to the nearby burial ground associated with the medieval church. The evaluation revealed a large undated pit, a post-medieval ditch, an undated gully, as well as Roman and post-medieval pottery and butchered animal bone. A slight bank was also observed in the centre of the site, separating the lower ground from the higher ground. A large pond feature was also recorded in the south of the site, which appeared to have been deliberately backfilled in the Victorian era, but was likely to have been associated with the medieval Bishop's Palace to the south (SAM 199).
