Abstract:
The evaluation was carried out ahead of a proposed housing development. The site had been identified as part of a zone of potential archaeological survival, and development of the site was likely to have affected below-ground archaeological remains, particularly those associated with the Old Hall and its moat. Trial trenching showed the survival of the moat in Trench 3 at a depth of 0.75m below the present ground surface and an ironstone construction, possibly a sump, cut into the moat. The remainder of the recorded deposits and features consisted of probable palaeochannels in Trench 3 and Trench 4, and 19th and 20th century cellars, which had been backfilled in the 20th century in Trenches 2 and 4. Trench 1 contained no significant archaeological deposits. The survival of the moat in Trench 3 demonstrated the survival of 'islands' of archaeological deposits and features. [Au(abr)]
