Abstract: |
Evaluation trenching revealed a single post hole of unknown date, a ditch with a sherd of late Roman pottery deep in the fill and a deep pit which was possibly an early medieval well. All the pottery recovered from the deep pit was post-conquest but pre-13th century, supporting the proposition that early medieval development in Willingham was along the Church Street line. Also revealed was a deep brick lined well dating to the 17th or 18th century. With the exception of the Roman ditch the finds related to the early medieval and later development of this important Fenland village. [Au] |
