Abstract: |
An archaeological desk-based assessment and evaluation were undertaken in advance of proposals for residential development. The site was located in what was probably the core of the medieval village, close to the 13th century church of All Saints and the former medieval chapel of St Giles. There was the possibility of prehistoric, Roman, medieval and later remains. The field evaluation revealed a number of features, principally drainage ditches, and the majority of these were of post-medieval date. In addition, evidence of a former natural pond/channel was recorded close to the Friday Bridge Road frontage and it contained a single abraded medieval pottery sherd in its fill. Sparse features of medieval date were recorded, including a ditch parallel to the Friday Bridge Road frontage. [Au(abr)] |
