Abstract: |
An archaeological watching brief was undertaken during the installation of an underground electricity cable. Thoresway was situated in an area of known archaeological activity from the prehistoric to the post-medieval periods. Archaeological and aerial photographic survey had identified the remains of the more extensive settlement of medieval date, including two manorial complexes, as a series of well preserved earthworks surrounding the present village. The cable trenches were situated within the area of earthworks. Very limited excavation revealed a short sequence of natural deposits and a 19th to 20th century domestic rubbish dump associated with the Hillside Cottages. The route of the trenches, which followed long-standing field boundaries and former sunken trackways, could perhaps explain the lack of archaeological remains. [Au(abr)] |
