Abstract: |
A programme of geophysical (resistivity) survey and archaeological evaluation was undertaken within the grounds of the Manor House. The fieldwork was designed to establish whether contemporary archaeological remains survived within the immediate vicinity of the predominantly 17th century building. The Manor House lay in an area of strong archaeological interest, with prehistoric, Romano-British, Anglo-Saxon and medieval occupation known from the locality. The Manor House itself lay alongside the Anglo-Saxon church and was conjectured to overlie a late Saxon and early medieval manorial complex. Evaluation trenching identified previously unknown medieval features, dating between the 12th and 14th centuries, in the immediate vicinity of the house. In addition, geophysical survey successfully located buried structural remains, and associated features, across an extensive area of the grounds. [Au] |
