Abstract: |
A reconnaissance survey of a parish recorded several features which had not been entered onto the County SMR, and confirmed the presence of known sites. Previously recorded features which were visited included the well-defined earthworks of the deserted medieval village of Osleston, house platforms, a moated house site and other earthworks relating to the shrunken village of Thurvaston, further possible house platforms, and areas of ridge and furrow. Earthworks were also observed at the site of Sharrow Hall, a moated site where excavations had revealed 16th and 17th century pottery. The course of a Roman road had been recorded in the northern part of the parish. Archaeological features and possible sites not recorded on the SMR included the remains of a building and a possible house platform, a ditch and bank representing a medieval lane and several areas of ridge and furrow.
